Section 13.4 Introduction to Git
One of the most widely used VCS tools today is Git. Git is a distributed version control system, meaning each developer has a full copy of the project history locally. Git is commonly used in conjunction with GitHub, a platform that hosts repositories online and facilitates collaboration.
Here are a few core Git concepts:
-
Repository (repo): A project managed with Git.
-
Branch: A parallel version of the repository used for developing features or experiments without affecting the main codebase.
-
Merge: Combining changes from one branch into another.
-
Clone: Making a local copy of a remote repository.
-
Pull / Push: Commands to fetch changes from a remote repo or upload your local commits to it.
