<li>Uncover the details of computers and numerical simulations: bring power (analogy blue/red pill of Matrix movie)</li>
<li>The class will be a bit particular (uncovering knowledge), thus it is personal and needs participation.</li>
<li>Students have to build their own understanding/experience on the various tasks required.</li>

<li>Git is a free distributed version control system (DVCS), used for source code management (SCM)</li>
<li>Git operates on a decentralized architecture, so every git working directory has the complete history</li>
<li>Git was initiallydesigned and created by Linus Torvalds for Linux kernel development</li>

<p>The recommended way to connect to the c4science server (and actually any distant linux machine) is through the SSH protocol:</p>
<center><img src="figures/ssh.png"></center><ul>
<li>You need a pair of keys: one public and one private</li>
<li>They are stored in the directory <em>.ssh</em> in your home directory</li>
<li>The public can be distributed, the private should stay <strong>secret</strong></li>
<li>A good habit is to generate one key-pair per client and never transport the private key</li>
