Hey everyone, network engineer here wanting to start learning the ways of git. Any suggestions on solid training? Thinking of adopting a git style approach to network commits.

Hey Allen, i found reading up about git flow really useful, we ended up not adopting it but it gives you good understanding of branching strategies. This article is great: https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/learn-git-with-bitbucket-cloud

Thanks Jamie. I'm debating between Ansible and Terraform. What do you think?

I've no real experience on ansible.and my understanding of it is it's more aligned to configuration management then platform deployment. From my limited knowledge of ansible the 2 can and often are used together. Terraform however I have good knowledge of. I'd go that route over ARM/Cloud formation due to its agnostic capability (can deploy to anything there's a provider for).

Awesome, thanks

@Allen Tyson we use the two together a bunch. I tend to think of ansible as the duct-tape of automation, but it generally has a broader appeal with networking devices since it 'logs in' and doesnt need an API/provider
