Add submodule and other advanced information about training-manual

[brianamarie]

This should also include subtree information, at the very least, comparing and contrasting the why and usability for subtrees and submodules.

@brianamarie I think if we are going to try to have all of our training content in the manual format (which I believe we do) , we should include the advanced content in a book format.

I know this has been sitting here for a while - I would like to add these sections in the future, but am currently unsure of when I'll have the bandwidth to do this. I'll leave this issue open. If anyone else would like to start this off, please feel free. 😄

Adding on to this issue - it would be ✨ if we could have an additional script to run, which would open up several issues with more "advanced" topics. We could run this script in the case that we finish class early, or there are specific questions on these topics. The issues would have the instructions and some brief explanations for each concept.

An advantage of having these as issues rather than parts of the training manual is that it would easily allow us to sort during class based on interest. (ex: have people assign themselves to issues they're interested in.)

@brianamarie should this be in the programs backlog or should we hand this over to the implementation engineering team?

[brianamarie]

I think this makes sense to hand over to the implementation engineering team. 👍 cc @beardofedu @rwnfoo @allthedoll @aharshbe @ppremk @DGpeach - these are potential improvements to the training manual that I started when I was actively training. Let me know if you have any questions! Feel free to let this hang out here until a customer requests it, or incorporate it as preparation for an upcoming engagement. It would be really handy to have in the appendix for more advanced customers.

• Alternatives to filter-branch
  • https://github.com/universeworkshops/deep-clean-your-git-repositories
  • https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo
• Team workflow activity
• In some cases, give participants access to training-manual, and help them get access
• Configure GPG verification
• Create .gitignore files
• Show and try GUIs, like Git Kraken, GitHub Desktop
• Spend time on the post-tests together
• Go through the documentation section from GitHub for Non-Devs
• Create a slideshow on GitHub pages
• Create pull request and issue templates
  • Blog post
  • Choose your own adventure
• Configuring integrations
  • Cover some of the integrations that the group is working with, like Jenkins or Jira
  • Configure Actions or a probot app
• Practice more with Learning Lab or Git Katas
