We have discussed that we might need a different name for the course than cog-flow.

Potential alternatives (which I don't particularly like, but that might help start the brainstorming process):

  • GitCollab
  • GoGit / CollabGit / CollaborativeGit
  • GitTogether
  • GitTeamFlow

If we focus on "team-based collaborative workflows" some ideas are:

  • tbc-flow (a WoW player would think of TBC 😛)
  • tec-flow (evokes an image of tech)
  • teacow (a cow having tea?)
  • cote-flow (either the french word or the english word)

Could even remove or add flow to any of them.

Or tbc as in to be confirmed? 😛

cwg-flow (collaborative workflow in git)?

The reason I want to avoid collab is because it has too much overlap with Google Colab. Same as why we don't call it git-flow, since that is already it's own thing.

I get why we should avoid git-flow bc it's its own thing, but git-collab and google colab is not the same? :) At least, I would argue that the similarity isn't big enough to be an issue?

Maybe, but from a "Google-ability"/"search engine" point of view, they are very similar! Google "collab" and the first thing that pops up is Colab 😛

That's true, but it doesn't show up at all with the search "git collab"? :)

git teamflow?

Based on some of the ideas in #40:

  • cat-flow: (collaboration as a team) also is nice because we can use Cat images and make a link that people are sometimes like cats, hard to get to effectively work together 😛 especially researchers.

Ooooo that would be super cute! 🐱 🐈 🐈‍⬛
I do still feel the need to have Git as a part of the name though since it's the main tool we use in the course... Cat-g? Collaborate as a team with git? And a cool/gangster cat? 🕶️ 🐱 hahah

(Both related and not related to the above; By searching "Git for CATS", I found this blogpost that explains Git commands with cats 🐱 )

docs: 🎨 set course title and subtitle (#57)
1c56bb5 
## Description

This PR adds the course title and subtitle in the `_quarto.yml`. 

Initially, I added the title and subtitle we agreed on in #55 and #40 ,
but I kept brainstorming a bit and found an alternative that I liked
more; it's simpler/shorter and more digestible, in my opinion.

There's just something that I don't quite like about "collaborating as a
team" + we're missing the *s* from the abbreviation. And I liked the
explicit addition of the "CATs" abbreviation in the title too.
With the subtitle "An introduction to ...", I think that we still
incorporate the "you don't have to be collaborative team just yet, but
wanting to learn it is enough"-part that we talked about earlier.

Buuutttt, if you don't like it, I can just revert it 🐱 🐈 

Closes #55 
Closes #40
Related to #20 

## Reviewer Focus

This PR needs an in-depth review.

@lwjohnst86 I guess this can be closed with the renaming of the repo?
