● Git is a version control system. ● GitHub is a platform for code
collaboration!
● It can be used with various tools
or locally on your computer to ● GitHub uses Git for version control
help you keep track of changes in and provides you all sorts of
your code projects. awesome collaboration tools.

● Think of it like Google Docs for

code, but better.

@siddharth_hacks
 Why version control?
Because emailing a file around is painful
Version control features
● Log changes in a searchable way, instead of renaming a file for each
version.

● Collaborators can work in parallel and merge their changes

automatically, instead of manually comparing the differences
between a file

Terminologies

@siddharth_hacks
 Developer Workflow

❖ fork: your own copy of someone else's repository.

❖ branch: a parallel version of the master copy of a repo. Making a
branch allows you to edit code without accidentally breaking a
working version
❖ stage: add to a cohesive group/bundle of revisions
❖ commit: a group of revisions you want to officially add to your
branch
❖ merge: to officially add the changes from your branch into the
master branch (or another branch)
