Anton Antonov (syndbg) Hello, the following book is fairly new and it's currently missing in GoodReads.

Title: Introducing Github
Authors: Peter Bell, Brent Beer
ISBN(print): 978-1-4919-4974-0
ISBN(ebook): 978-1-4919-4973-3
Publisher: O'Reilly Media
Publication date: November 2014
Description: If you’re new to GitHub, this concise book shows you just what you need to get started and no more. It’s perfect for project and product managers, stakeholders, and other team members who want to collaborate on a development project—whether it’s to review and comment on work in progress or to contribute specific changes. It’s also great for developers just learning GitHub.

GitHub has rapidly become the default platform for software development, but it’s also ideal for other text-based documents, from contracts to screenplays. This hands-on book shows you how to use GitHub’s web interface to view projects and collaborate effectively with your team.

Learn how and why people use GitHub to collaborate
View the status of a project—recent changes, outstanding work, and historic changes
Create and edit files through GitHub without learning Git
Suggest changes to projects you don’t have permission to edit directly
Use tools like issues, pull requests, and branches to specify and collaborate on changes
Create a new GitHub repository to control who has access to your project

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments Was this book originally called "Getting Started With GitHub"? If it was we can combine them.

The ISBN of the print edition is assigned to that book.

Also, ISBN info was shortened version so they would work, so I removed them. If they are the same as the other book, we need to mark it as an ACE, and not attach an ISBN to the book.

Anton Antonov (syndbg) I don't think so. Getting Started with Github doesn't exist in O'Reilly's site.

Philip (burnnerman) | 5912 comments I marked the print version as an ACE, since worldcat stated that ISBN was used for the both books. Did not state whether one replaced the other.

Created the ebook version her: Introducing GitHub, A Non-Technical Guide
