What is Version-Control? What is Git? How do Version-Control Systems help you?
A Thread 🧵⬇️
➡️What is Git?
Git is a version control system that helps you keep track of changes in your project. It is open source and distributed.
Git can keep track of the smallest of changes, no matter how large or complex your project is.
➡️But hey, what do you mean by keep track of changes? What does a version control system mean?
Version control, also known as source control, is the practice of tracking and managing changes to software code.
A tool that helps you manage changes of your software code.
➡️Since, Git is a version control system, it allows you to -
Store all your code
Manage & Track changes
Make it available for others to use
Git is a distributed version control system which makes the third point valid. This allows people to access/ modify code as required.
➡️How will you benefit from Git?
As Git helps you manage your code, it also helps you upload, outsource, or store your code. There are a few cloud-based hosting services that let you do that.
For example - GitHub, BitBucket, etc.
➡️Your life with Git + Github
1. Save your code for life.
2. Collaborate with other developers and work together.
3. Track changes of the project since its inception!
4. Find people working on similar projects
5. Build your Public Portfolio! C'mon!
That's a wrap!
