The document provides an introduction to Git and GitHub. It discusses version control and why it is useful, particularly for software development and collaboration. It defines version control systems and contrasts centralized and decentralized approaches. Git is introduced as a distributed version control system created in 2005 to manage Linux kernel changes. GitHub is defined as a hosting service for Git repositories that provides a graphical interface and enables easy collaboration on projects. The workflow on GitHub is described as creating repositories to store and track file versions over time as changes are committed by team members working on different branches.

4. What is Version Control?

5. Why Version Control?

7. Why version control
● Managing and Protecting the Source Code
● Keeping Track of All the Modifications Made to the Code
● Comparing Earlier Versions of the Code
● Easier Collaboration
● Mostly Open Source

8. What is Version Control System?
A version control system is a software that records all the
changes made to a file or set of files, so a specific version
may be called later if needed.
This helps in collaboration with all the team members.

11. What is Git?
Presenter: Prakhar Yadav

12. What is Git?
Git is a version control system that is used for tracking
changes in computer files. It is used for coordinating work
among several people on a project and tracking progress
over time.
It is used for Source Code Management in the
implementation of a software.

13. History of Git

15. History of Git
Git was created by Linus Torvalds, in April 2005.
It was a replacement for BitKeeper to manage Linux kernel
changes.

16. What is Github?

17. What is Github?
Github is a Git repository hosting service which provides a
web-based graphical interface.
Github helps every team member to work together on the
project from anywhere and makes it easy for them to
collaborate.

18. Workflow on Github

19. Workflow on Github
A repository is created, where files and all their versions will
be stored over time.
As changes are made to files that are stored in the repository,
they are automatically tracked so you can see what was
changed, when, and by whom.

20. Workflow on Github
If one team member wants to work on a file, they can check
out the file, make changes, and then commit those
changes/check them into the repository once they are done.
If a team member wants to experiment with a new feature
without impacting the work of other team members— they
can create a new branch.
