Christina, I have a work-in-progress capstone at
https://github.com/davis68/capstone-python-intermediate-forecast.  This
utilizes shell, Python, and Git.  Daniel Standage and I improvised it a
while back, and the write-up has been proceeding piecemeal, but in practice
it has worked fairly well both times I've used it.

Neal Davis

Sincerely,
Neal Davis
