      Dear science Twitter: Does anyone have any suggestions/ experience to share about setting up a lab (cf individual) GitHub? Any clever life hacks would be appreciated.

      Hi Sam! Here’s my lab’s GitHub organisation: https://github.com/WhitakerLab  There aren’t many things to see except for me because a) I have a very new lab and b) most people I work with are anxious about public project management.

      So I have chosen to go with a bunch of private repos: https://help.github.com/articles/applying-for-an-academic-research-discount/ … I know it isn’t perfect but I think it’s really hard for folks who aren’t used to GitHub to “air their dirty laundry” while they’re learning.

      My philosophy is to focus on the in lab training and build up confidence so they can make later projects open if they’d like.

      The number of notifications is really tough. So keep having lots of conversations about how to best communicate. There are GitHub options to manage notifications but they require some common ways of working (knowing when to tag etc) that only humans can determine

      My other big recommendation is to remember that *git* and *GitHub* are very different skill sets. I know lots of people who are git wizards but don’t know how to do a pull request and don’t use issues. So train for both skills

      What I mean by “not using issues” is the use of them as a project management tool, or a place to have discussions and get feedback. Most folks think of them only for bugs. I think you’re missing some functionality if you only use issues for bugs but that’s a lab decision :)

      This is amazing, thanks @kirstie_j. The number of notifications could be a big deal for us, so we will have to manage that. Also the advice about issues is great. Thanks so much!

      FWIW I code in private (often) & then publish the public repo. For various reasons, including to avoid confusion and to avoid including files that should not be there. Also why code in public anyway if you are new to coding? Can imagine it to be scary AF for newbies.

      Also... In the same way you don't make your feedback to your mentees writing (imagine comments on their manuscript) public why make all coding public?

          There is a lot of value in coding publicly of course too.

          Yes, some privacy will be essential for us I suspect. Trying to get the research institution approval to have private repos now. Hopefully that way we don't have to pay for keeping work private.

          At least the work in private is free for personal accounts, if you have the academic package.

          Yeah it looks like you can apply for a similar thing for your institution, so hopefully I can get that going

          Yeah, looking at that at the same time, it seems to be nicely set up for big groups from what I can see

          None of these are mutually exclusive either. Repos can have multiple remotes.https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11690709/can-a-project-have-multiple-origins …
