Version control
- Tracking changes + revert to previous states
- Collaborative
- Branching
Core concepts
Tracking changes and reverting
- Every change is saved as a commit with a message describing what changed and why
- Allows reverting to any previous state if a bug is introduced
- Provides a full audit trail of who changed what and when
Collaboration
- Multiple developers can work on the same codebase simultaneously
- Changes are merged and conflicts are resolved systematically
- Remote repositories (e.g. GitHub, GitLab) allow distributed teams to share code
Branching
- Branches allow separate lines of development (e.g. feature branches, bug fix branches)
- Main/master branch holds stable, production-ready code
- Feature branches are merged back via pull requests after review
