  1. Setting up git in RStudio can be troublesome for novices to both software.
    New users to Git and RStudio would find it difficult to install and then enable version control (Git) in RStudio. Therefore, it would be good to include more detailed information on this aspect. A useful reference from the RStudio support forum: Version Control with Git and SVN – RStudio Support

  2. The current course material only covers “using a directory already under version control”.
    In some cases (an easier option), users would like to create a new project based on a remote Git repository. Therefore, it would be good to add some instructions in this regard.

  3. Show remote Git repository after git push in RStudio.
    After we have done with git push -u origin main, it would be good to wrap up with a quick overview of the Git repository in the web browser. Learners would know what’s happened and where to find those changes. It is also worth mentioning the necessity of doing pull in RStudio before making new changes when collaborating with others.
