+An easy but still very efficient way to provide any feedback to this tutorial that does not require any GitHub knowledge is to create an *issue*. You can read *issues* submitted by other users or create a new *issue* [here](https://github.com/kbjarkefur/GitHubDropBox/issues). While the word *issue* has a negative connotation outside GitHub, it can be used for any kind of feedback. Please read already existing *issues* to check whether someone else has made the same suggestion or reported the same error before creating a new *issue*.

 ### Introduction
 
 For good or for bad, in research we often want to use both DropBox and GitHub. Usually the DropBox folder include many folders in addition to the data folder - the folder with files relevant to GitHub. The other folders have files like budget excel sheets, concept notes, contracts with survey firms etc.
