GIT(Global Information System).
Version Control System.
A tool that helps developers track changes in their code over time and allows multiple people to work on the same project at once,even offline.
Created by Linus Torvalds in 2005 for developing the Linux Kernel.
It lets you record snapshots of your project (called commits) so you can:
Go back to earlier version if needed.
See who made what changes .
Work on the same project with others without overwriting each others work.
GIT is used to collaborate on code.
GIT helps you keep track of code changes.
