Overview

Versioning is a critical practice in software development that tracks changes to code, documents, and assets over time. It ensures collaboration, rollback capabilities, and clear history management. 📊

Key Concepts

• Branching Models: Strategies like Git Flow or Trunk-Based Development organize workflows.
• Semantic Versioning: A standard format MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH for version numbers.
• Version Control Tools:
  • Git
  • SVN
  • Mercurial

Best Practices

• Always commit changes with descriptive messages.
• Use tags for stable releases (e.g., v1.0.0).
• Automate versioning with CI/CD pipelines.
