What is Git & GitHub ?
Git is an example of Version control is a system that records changes to a
file or set of files and helps us recall specific versions later if needed. E.g.
Subversion (SVN), CVS etc.
It allows you to :
• Revert files or the whole project to an earlier state
• Compare changes over time
• See who modified what?
• Control modifications by collaborators with the permission of
admin/owners.
GitHub is a repository hosting service for Git

• While Git is a command line tool, GitHub provides a web-based graphical


interface that works on top of GIT. It can also be treated as a social platform
to share knowledge and work.

• It also provides access control and several collaboration features, such as


wikis and basic task management tools
Important Concepts for GitHub Users
 Creating a repo
Creating a repository for multiple people to work together
 Master in a repository
This is the final version that is considered ready to use by anybody in the team or outside if
repository is public.
 Creating a Branch
• Create a branch in your project, for an environment where you can try out new ideas.
• Changes you make on a branch don't affect the master unless pull request is accepted.
• Changes committed to branch reflects for you to keep track of different versions
 Adding Commits
• Keeps track of your progress as you work on a branch or master.
• Creates a transparent history that others can follow to understand what you've done
and why.
 Forking a repository
• It creates a copy for you to work on independently without any changes to theirs.
• Submit a pull request to owner so that the owner can incorporate changes.
