Description

There should be a page on how to use Github besides just creating an account. If you have multiple programmers on a team then some teams may need to learn how to do pull requests and create issues. Maybe we could even have a wpilib sample code license and template repository. Also, we should be teaching teams how to create their own github organizations that they can also host their team website for outreach on github.io for free. Just food for thought!
