Git is used extensively in both the bachelor and masters degree program multimediatechnology. We set up this account on github for the whole university, and the account multimediatechnology to accommodate both student and research projects.
Get a normal github account. Then write to Brigitte Jellinek (from your fh e-mail adress), stating the name of the repository you need. She'll add you as a member and create the repository for you.
You can browse the source code of the projects right here on github. Or you can look at the finished projects in our portfolio site.
