Description

  1. I'm not sure how useful this is to new users. It could confuse them.

  2. Typo "breanches" should be branches

  3. the page says "You can do git fetch to update local data with the remotes without actually pulling." What does that mean?

  4. SSH keys and GitHub section mentions s/w carpentry training, but it is unlikely they will have done this.
