git

What is git?

git is a tool for version control of files and projects. In particular, version control systems (VCS) are used in team or individual software development. They allow multiple parties to work on a project simultaneously through the "copy-modify-merge" model and provide convenient versioning so that you can jump back to any point in the development process at any time. Git has some unique features, especially because it is a distributed VCS, which means that each developer typically has a local repository that they can synchronize with other repositories on the network.
