Data Science in R: From Basics to Machine Learning

In this lesson, we walk through the steps of setting up Git with R and provide guidance for getting started with version control for R projects. It's possible and common to set up and manage GitHub with R projects with the user interfaces provided through RStudio and GitHub software. However, we'll leverage the `git2r` package to keep our coding mindset while performing project maintenance tasks.

Learn to create, push to, and clone Git repositories from R.
