In this lesson I'll show you how to create a README file for our project and initialise a new Git repository. I'll also show you how to make our first Git commit (something we'll be doing lots of throughout the course).

Update: The official GitHub Python .gitignore file is missing `.vagrant` from the list of ignored files. I've since updated this link to point to an extended version of the original Python.gitignore file which includes this extra item as well as `.sqlite3`. This makes Git ignore the temporary vagrant files and database which would typically be excluded from the git repository. (Thanks Keith for pointing this out!).
