Git Workflow

Introduction

 Before Git tracks a change, it goes through a


long chain of operations and tasks.

 Many of these tasks are user controlled, and


are required for changes to be tracked correctly.
Repositories

 Repositories, usually called ‘repos’, store the full history and


source control of a project.

 They can either be hosted locally, or on a shared server, such


as GitHub.

 Most repositories are stored on GitHub, while core contributors


make copies of the repository on their machine and update the
repository using the push/pull system.

 Any repository stored somewhere other than locally is called a


‘remote repository’.
Repos vs Directories

 Repositories are timelines of the entire project,


including all
 Directories, or ‘working directories’ are projects
at their current state in time.

 Any local directory interacting with a repository


is technically a repository itself, however, it is
better to call these directories ‘local
repositories’, as they are instances of a remote
repository.
Workflow Diagram

 This diagram shows a little bit about how the


basic Git workflow process works

 The staging area is the bundle of all the


modifications to the project that are going to be
committed.

 A ‘commit’ is similar to taking a snapshot of the


current state of the project, then storing it on a
timeline.
