- Fossil SCM - a new-ish contender to Git which is fairly compelling for a variety of technological and workflow reasons. Something to watch. But, for now, stick with Git.
- A nice Git Tutorial from Github.
- GitHub - Amazing universe of open-source software. Unlimited hosting of open-source repositories. Has issue, milestone, and project tracking. Has project wikis. Integrates with everything.

- CodeGiant - New entrant hoping to offer a better-designed experience.
- GitHub Desktop - simple, nice-looking, approachable client.
- SourceTree - from Atlassian, makers of Bitbucket.
- GitKraken - beautifully designed Git Client.
- Original Git Bash Shell - for ballers. This actually comes with GitHub Desktop and SourceTree, so usually doesn't have to be downloaded separately.
- Vagrant - easy to spin up virtual machines, configurable via simple YAML files.
- Docker - THE base container technology. Easy to configure, stitch together, and lock down. Preferable these days to Vagrant.
- This is the official Docker tutorial.
- Just enough Docker to be Dangerous is a good intro tutorial, as well, by Sean Kross.
- Kubernetes - The industry-standard way to scale out and coordinate tons of Docker images working together. Kind of amazing, really.
- Scotch Box - Pre-configured Vagrant box. Very nice - everything just spins up and works.
- Ansible - SSH-based automation technology.
- Cisco Shipped
