Using Microsoft Visual Studio Code and Github together

I'm currently trying to learn Python using the excellent resources at  https://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/  and, in a move that I'm sure would enrage the author, I want to use Microsoft's Visual Studio Code as my editor.  The reasons for this are mainly that a. I actually quite like it and b. I already use it for a number of other projects.  If you haven't already then I suggest checking it out by downloading it  here .

One thing for sure is this won't be a regular thing - so if you're reading this then don't hold your breath for the next instalment!
