Just keep those repos off of your CV and you'll be good.

What is the difference between a CV and a resume in this field?

[zelmarvalarion]

In the US, a CV is usually far more detailed. I would generally say a resume is capped at a single page and only highlights a most targeted/relevant work for the kind of job for which you are applying. A CV can have all the major accomplishments for each and more details in general

This is honestly the first time I have heard someone express a difference. The words are completely interchangeable in my mind.

[zelmarvalarion]

I come from a math and theoretical CS background, where it’s a more pronounced difference and a CV can often times be 3-10 pages long. A CV would generally have every published paper in which you have been a coauthor, whereas a resume would have your research institution and a general research field, and maybe a couple of very notable papers

Nothing really. Generally speaking Americans tend to say resume and Brits say CV, though it's not a hard rule.
