Git and Github

Version Control

Git is a version control system (VCS). It helps manage your files and trach the history of changes in your projects. It tells you:

• what changes were made
• who made them
• when the changes occurred

VCS also lets you return to a previous version of your project. 

Git

Git allows you to save drafts of your code so you can look back and undo problems. A repository is a place you manage a project: it contains all the files and folders for your project, the revision history of each file, and commits.

We made a repository

We committed a small change to the repository

We looked up a repository and cloned it to our desktop.

I'm pooped and overwhelmed right now, so I'm going to call it a day. (see previous post)
