SAS Bowl LIX, Integrating SAS and Git
The code and data that drive analytics projects are important assets to the organizations that sponsor them. As such, there is a growing trend to manage these items in the source management systems of record. For most companies these days, that means Git. The specific system might be GitHub Enterprise, GitLab, or Bitbucket -- all platforms that are based on Git.
Typically, SAS users interact with Git in one of two ways: through a command-line interface (CLI) or through the point-and-click GUI in SAS Viya. While both these approaches are superior for most use cases, when working with scheduled jobs, flows, or automated pipelines, neither is perfect. February's SAS Bowl is to Git you excited about SAS.
