Understanding Git and Git hub

What is Git?

  • Git is the most popular version control system that helps developers track changes to coding locally. It allows you to manage and record changes to your computer

  • Allows multiple developers to work on a project simultaneously without overwriting each other’s changes.

Why Version Control is important

  • It allows multiple developers to collaborate efficiently by tracking code changes and preventing conflicts.

  • With version control, you can track every change, see who made it, and easily revert to earlier versions if necessary.

  • It also allows for safe experimentation, letting you create branches for new features or fixes without disrupting the main code.

  • Moreover, version control provides backup and security, ensuring your code is safe even in case of mistakes or system failures.

  • Ultimately, version control keeps projects organized, increases productivity, and makes collaboration smoother.
