First of all, to reply to Davide,
+1 ;) So let's come up with a swcarpentry style repo for HPC!

Second of all, I would support an HPCCarpentry as well and would love to dive into discussing several issues.

Third of all, there are also hundreds of tutorials on git/bash/python/... out there, the question is:
- are they version controlled?
- are they collaboratively developed and collaboratively kept uptodate?
- are they open for critical discussions on contents and methods?
- are they trying to base their teaching methods on actual research?
As I consider all 4 of the above points hallmarks of the softwarecarpentry/datecarpentry movement, I'd say that if any material complies to them all, it is a very good starting point. Because mostly, HPC intros are tailored to local systems. So the tricky thing for an HPCCarpentry would be to extract the essential points among the important ones.

Best,
Peter
