GitHub
Git and GitHub are essential tools for modern software development. Git is
a distributed version control system that helps developers track changes to
their code, collaborate, and manage projects. GitHub is a cloud-based
platform that hosts Git repositories and provides additional collaboration
features.

Git makes it easy to create and manage branches, allowing developers to work on different
features or bug fixes concurrently and merge them back into the main codebase.

Cloning, Pushing, and Pulling
Cloning
1 Cloning creates a local copy of a remote repository, allowing developers to work
on the code locally.

Pushing
2 Pushing uploads local commits to the remote repository, sharing your work with
the team.

Pulling

3 Pulling downloads the latest changes from the remote repository to your local
machine, keeping your code up-to-date.
