🎉 Git Tutorial: Version Control for Developers

Git is a powerful distributed version control system that helps developers track changes in code, collaborate efficiently, and manage projects seamlessly. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced programmer, understanding Git is essential in modern software development.

🧱 Key Concepts of Git

  • Repository (Repo): A directory where your project files and history are stored.
  • Commit: A snapshot of your changes saved in the repo.
  • Branch: A separate line of development (e.g., main, feature-xyz).
  • Merge: Combining changes from different branches into one.
  • Staging Area: A temporary space to prepare changes before committing.

✅ Basic Git Workflow

  1. Initialize a Repo 

    git init
    Git_Logo

  2. Track Files 

    git add <file_name>

  3. Commit Changes 

    git commit -m "Useful message"

  4. View History
