🚀 Git is a distributed version control system that helps you keep track of changes to your code.
Git is free and open-source software.
It was originally created by Linus Torvalds for version control during the development of the Linux kernel.
In software development, distributed version control (also known as distributed revision control) is a form of version control in which the complete codebase, including its full history, is mirrored on every developer's computer.
Why Use Git?
🕹️ Version control – Undo mistakes, view history
🤝 Collaboration – Multiple people can work on the same project
🌿 Branching – Try new features without breaking the main code
🔄 Merging – Combine different code versions easily
🧩 Integration – Works with platforms like GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket
git init # Start a new Git repo
git add . # Stage your changes
git commit -m "Message" # Save changes with a message
git status # Check what’s going on
git push # Upload your code to GitHub
git pull # Download the latest codeIf you're working on personal projects, contributing to open source, or building with a team, learning Git is a must. It’s one of those tools that may seem complex at first, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes second nature.
