Before we delve into the technicalities of GitHub, let's understand the essence of version control and how GitHub plays a pivotal role in modern software development.
Introduction to Version Control
Version control is a system that records changes to a file or set of files over time, allowing you to recall specific versions later. It provides a historical timeline of modifications, enabling collaboration, tracking progress, and reverting to earlier states if needed.
GitHub as a Version Control Platform
GitHub is a web-based hosting service for version control using Git. It enhances collaboration among developers by providing a centralized platform to store, manage, and track changes in code repositories. GitHub facilitates teamwork, ensures code integrity, and empowers developers to work together seamlessly.
Git vs GitHub
Git is the version control system itself, installed locally on a developer's machine, while GitHub is a web-based platform that hosts Git repositories and adds collaborative features, making it easier for teams to work together.
