Git
Git (/ɡɪt/[7]) is a version control system for tracking changes in
Git
computer files and coordinating work on those files among
multiple people. It is primarily used for source code
management in software development,[8] but it can be used to
keep track of changes in any set of files. As a distributed
revision control system it is aimed at speed,[9] data
integrity,[10] and support for distributed, non-linear
workflows.[11]
History

2/4/2018 Git - Wikipedia
Git development began in April 2005, after many developers of the Linux kernel gave up access to BitKeeper, a
proprietary source control management (SCM) system that they had formerly used to maintain the project.[14] The
copyright holder of BitKeeper, Larry McVoy, had withdrawn free use of the product after claiming that Andrew
Tridgell had reverse-engineered the BitKeeper protocols.[15] (The same incident would also spur the creation of
another version control system, Mercurial.)
Linus Torvalds wanted a distributed system that he could use like BitKeeper, but none of the available free systems
met his needs, especially for performance. Torvalds cited an example of a source-control management system needing
30 seconds to apply a patch and update all associated metadata, and noted that this would not scale to the needs of
Linux kernel development, where syncing with fellow maintainers could require 250 such actions at once. For his
design criteria, he specified that patching should take no more than three seconds,[9] and added three more points:
Take Concurrent Versions System (CVS) as an example of what not to do; if in doubt, make the exact opposite
decision[11]
Support a distributed, BitKeeper-like workflow[11]
Include very strong safeguards against corruption, either accidental or malicious[10]
These criteria eliminated every then-extant version control system except Monotone. Performance considerations
excluded it, too.[11] So immediately after the 2.6.12-rc2 Linux kernel development release, Torvalds set out to write his
own system.[11]
Torvalds quipped about the name git (which means unpleasant person in British English slang): "I'm an egotistical
bastard, and I name all my projects after myself. First 'Linux', now 'git'."[16][17] The man page describes Git as "the
stupid content tracker".[18] The readme file of the source code elaborates further:[19]
The name "git" was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very
first version. He described the tool as "the stupid content tracker"
and the name as (depending on your way):
- random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact th
- stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang.
- "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenl
- "goddamn idiotic truckload of shit": when it breaks
The development of Git began on 3 April 2005.[20] Torvalds announced the project on 6 April;[21] it became self-
hosting as of 7 April.[20] The first merge of multiple branches took place on 18 April.[22] Torvalds achieved his
performance goals; on 29 April, the nascent Git was benchmarked recording patches to the Linux kernel tree at the
rate of 6.7 patches per second.[23] On 16 June Git managed the kernel 2.6.12 release.[24]
Torvalds turned over maintenance on 26 July 2005 to Junio Hamano, a major contributor to the project.[25] Hamano
was responsible for the 1.0 release on 21 December 2005, and remains the project's maintainer.[26]

Design
Git's design was inspired by BitKeeper and Monotone.[27][28] Git was originally designed as a low-level version control
system engine on top of which others could write front ends, such as Cogito or StGIT.[28] The core Git project has since
become a complete version control system that is usable directly.[29] While strongly influenced by BitKeeper, Torvalds
deliberately avoided conventional approaches, leading to a unique design.[30]
Characteristics

2/4/2018 Git - Wikipedia
Git's design is a synthesis of Torvalds's experience with Linux in maintaining a large distributed development project,
along with his intimate knowledge of file system performance gained from the same project and the urgent need to
produce a working system in short order. These influences led to the following implementation choices:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git 4/13
2/4/2018 Git - Wikipedia
be very computationally costly. By allowing objects to exist in the repository in a loose but
quickly generated format, Git allows the costly pack operation to be deferred until later, when
time matters less, e.g., the end of a work day. Git does periodic repacking automatically but
manual repacking is also possible with the git gc command. For data integrity, both the
packfile and its index have an SHA-1 checksum inside and the file name of the packfile also
contains an SHA-1 checksum. To check the integrity of a repository, run the git fsck
command.
Another property of Git is that it snapshots directory trees of files. The earliest systems for tracking versions of source
code, Source Code Control System (SCCS) and Revision Control System (RCS), worked on individual files and
emphasized the space savings to be gained from interleaved deltas (SCCS) or delta encoding (RCS) the (mostly
similar) versions. Later revision control systems maintained this notion of a file having an identity across multiple
revisions of a project. However, Torvalds rejected this concept.[39] Consequently, Git does not explicitly record file
revision relationships at any level below the source code tree.
It is slightly more costly to examine the change history of one file than the whole project.[40] To obtain a history of
changes affecting a given file, Git must walk the global history and then determine whether each change modified
that file. This method of examining history does, however, let Git produce with equal efficiency a single history
showing the changes to an arbitrary set of files. For example, a subdirectory of the source tree plus an associated
global header file is a very common case.
Renames are handled implicitly rather than explicitly. A common complaint with CVS is that it uses the name of a
file to identify its revision history, so moving or renaming a file is not possible without either interrupting its history,
or renaming the history and thereby making the history inaccurate. Most post-CVS revision control systems solve
this by giving a file a unique long-lived name (analogous to an inode number) that survives renaming. Git does not
record such an identifier, and this is claimed as an advantage.[41][42] Source code files are sometimes split or
merged, or simply renamed,[43] and recording this as a simple rename would freeze an inaccurate description of
what happened in the (immutable) history. Git addresses the issue by detecting renames while browsing the
history of snapshots rather than recording it when making the snapshot.[44] (Briefly, given a file in revision N, a file
of the same name in revision N−1 is its default ancestor. However, when there is no like-named file in revision
N−1, Git searches for a file that existed only in revision N−1 and is very similar to the new file.) However, it does
require more CPU-intensive work every time the history is reviewed, and several options to adjust the heuristics
are available. This mechanism does not always work; sometimes a file that is renamed with changes in the same
commit is read as a deletion of the old file and the creation of a new file. Developers can work around this
limitation by committing the rename and the changes separately.
Git implements several merging strategies; a non-default strategy can be selected at merge time:[45]
When there are more than one common ancestors that can be used for three-way merge, it creates
a merged tree of the common ancestors and uses that as the reference tree for the three-way
merge. This has been reported to result in fewer merge conflicts without causing mis-merges by
tests done on prior merge commits taken from Linux 2.6 kernel development history. Also, this can
detect and handle merges involving renames.
— Linus Torvalds[46]
octopus: This is the default when merging more than two heads.
Data structures
Git's primitives are not inherently a source-code management system. Torvalds explains,[47]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git 5/13
2/4/2018 Git - Wikipedia
In many ways you can just see git as a filesystem – it's content-addressable, and it has a notion of
versioning, but I really really designed it coming at the problem from the viewpoint of a filesystem
person (hey, kernels is what I do), and I actually have absolutely zero interest in creating a traditional
SCM system.
From this initial design approach, Git has developed the full set of features expected of a traditional SCM,[29] with
features mostly being created as needed, then refined and extended over time.
Git has two data structures: a mutable index (also called stage or cache)
that caches information about the working directory and the next revision
to be committed; and an immutable, append-only object database.
The index serves as connection point between the object database and the
working tree.
Git stores each revision of a file as a unique blob. The relationships between the blobs can be found through examining
the tree and commit objects. Newly added objects are stored in their entirety using zlib compression. This can
consume a large amount of disk space quickly, so objects can be combined into packs, which use delta compression to
save space, storing blobs as their changes relative to other blobs.
References
Every object in the Git database which is not referred to may be cleaned up by using a garbage collection command, or
automatically. An object may be referenced by another object, or an explicit reference. Git knows different types of
references. The commands to create, move, and delete references vary. "git show-ref" lists all references. Some types
are:

Implementations
Git is primarily developed on Linux, although it also supports most major
operating systems including BSD, Solaris, macOS, and Windows.[50]
The first Microsoft Windows port of Git was primarily a Linux emulation
framework that hosts the Linux version. Installing Git under Windows
creates a similarly named Program Files directory containing the MinGW
port of the GNU Compiler Collection, Perl 5, msys2.0 (itself a fork of
Cygwin, a Unix-like emulation environment for Windows) and various
other Windows ports or emulations of Linux utilities and libraries.
gitg is a graphical front-end using
Currently native Windows builds of Git are distributed as 32 and 64-bit GTK+
installers.[51]
The JGit implementation of Git is a pure Java software library, designed to be embedded in any Java application. JGit
is used in the Gerrit code review tool and in EGit, a Git client for the Eclipse IDE.[52]
The Dulwich implementation of Git is a pure Python software component for Python 2.7, 3.4 and 3.5[53]
The libgit2 implementation of Git is an ANSI C software library with no other dependencies, which can be built on
multiple platforms including Windows, Linux, macOS, and BSD.[54] It has bindings for many programming languages,
including Ruby, Python, and Haskell.[55][56][57]
Web interfaces
There are various web interfaces available for Git.
Git server
As Git is a distributed version control system, it can be used as a server out of the box. Dedicated Git server software
helps, amongst other features, to add access control, display the contents of a Git repository via the web, and help
managing multiple repositories. Remote file store and shell access: A Git repository can be cloned to a shared file
system, and accessed by other persons. It can also be accessed via remote shell just by having the Git software installed
and allowing a user to log in.[59]
Adoption
The Eclipse Foundation reported in its annual community survey that as of May 2014, Git is now the most widely used
source-code management tool, with 42.9% of professional software developers reporting that they use Git as their
primary source control system[60] compared with 36.3% in 2013, 32% in 2012; or for Git responses excluding use of
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git 7/13
2/4/2018 Git - Wikipedia
GitHub: 33.3% in 2014, 30.3% in 2013, 27.6% in 2012 and 12.8% in 2011.[61] Open source directory Black Duck Open
Hub reports a similar uptake among open source projects.[62] The Stack Overflow developer survey reported in 2015
that 69.3% of developers use Git; 36.9% use Subversion; 12.2% use TFS; and 7.9% use Mercurial.[63]
The UK IT jobs website itjobswatch.co.uk reports that as of late September 2016, 29.27% of UK permanent software
development job openings have cited Git,[64] ahead of 12.17% for Microsoft Team Foundation Server,[65] 10.60% for
Subversion,[66] 1.30% for Mercurial,[67] and 0.48% for Visual SourceSafe.[68]
Since February 2017, Microsoft has been in the process of migrating Microsoft Windows development to Git,
migrating from Perforce. In order to handle the size of the Windows source code tree, Microsoft was required to
develop customizations to the software, including Git Virtual File System (GVFS), a system which allows cloned
repositories to use placeholders whose contents are downloaded only once a file is accessed.[69]
Security
Git does not provide access control mechanisms, but was designed for operation with other tools that specialize in
access control.[70]
On 17 December 2014, an exploit was found affecting the Windows and Mac versions of the Git client. An attacker
could perform arbitrary code execution on a target computer with Git installed by creating a malicious Git tree
(directory) named .git (a directory in Git repositories that stores all the data of the repository) in a different case (such
as .GIT or .Git, needed because Git doesn't allow the all-lowercase version of .git to be created manually) with
malicious files in the .git/hooks subdirectory (a folder with executable files that Git runs) on a repository that the
attacker made or on a repository that the attacker can modify. If a Windows or Mac user pulls (downloads) a version of
the repository with the malicious directory, then switches to that directory, the .git directory will be overwritten (due
to the case-insensitive trait of the Windows and Mac filesystems) and the malicious executable files in .git/hooks may
be run, which results in the attacker's commands being executed. An attacker could also modify the .git/config
configuration file, which allows the attacker to create malicious Git aliases (aliases for Git commands or external
commands) or modify extant aliases to execute malicious commands when run. The vulnerability was patched in
version 2.2.1 of Git, released on 17 December 2014, and announced on the next day.[71][72]
Git version 2.6.1, released on 29 September 2015, contained a patch for a security vulnerability (CVE-2015-7545)[73]
which allowed arbitrary code execution.[74] The vulnerability was exploitable if an attacker could convince a victim to
clone a specific URL, as the arbitrary commands were embedded in the URL itself.[75] An attacker could use the exploit
via a man-in-the-middle attack if the connection was unencrypted,[75] as they could redirect the user to a URL of their
choice. Recursive clones were also vulnerable, since they allowed the controller of a repository to specify arbitrary
URLs via the gitmodules file.[75]
Git uses SHA-1 hashes internally. Linus Torvalds has responded that the hash was mostly to guard against accidental
corruption, and the security a cryptographically secure hash gives was just an accidental side effect, with the main
security being signing elsewhere.[76][77]
