Learning objectives

In this module, you'll Learn:

• What git is
• what version control is
• Understand distributed version control systems, like Git

What is git?

Git is a distributed version control system that tracks changes in any set of computer files, usually used for coordinating work among programmers who are collaboratively developing source code during software development.

What is version control system?

Version control is the practice of tracking and managing changes to software/source code.

How/why does version control tracks software code?

Let's understand why:

• In a large software there are millions of code written. to managing the code you use version control.
• If there is bug in latest version of your software you can easily switch to old or previous version of software.
• git have track record of every version and very minor to major versions of the software.

Let's understand How:

• Suppose you have file index.js

  const name="sairaj";
  
  some code. then another contributor contribute
  
  const username="hemanta01";
  git capture snapshot of every changes
  thats how git is called version control system.
  it has the register of every changes in source code

Distributed version control

Git is distributed, which means that a project's complete history is stored both on the client and on the server. You can edit files without a network connection, check them in locally, and sync with the server when a connection becomes available.

Git terminology

To understand Git, you have to understand the terminology.

• Working tree: The set of nested directories and files that contain the project that's being worked on.

• Hash: The directory, located at the top level of a working tree, where Git keeps all the history and metadata for a project.

• Object:

• Commit: This action takes its name from commits to a database. It means you are committing the changes you have made so that others can eventually see them, too.

• Branch:

• Remote:

• Commands, subcommands, and options:
