In this tutorial, we will explain how to install Git from the Debian default repository and install it from the source on Debian 10.īefore starting, it is always a good idea to update your system packages to the latest version. It is very easy to fetch data from the local repository instead of doing the same from the remote repository. It is about 10 times faster than other VCS tools. Speed : Compared to other version control systems Git is very fast. This will occupy very minimal space and saves a lot of memory space. Git follows the criteria of lossless compression that compresses the data and stores it in the local repository. Lightweight : While you clone the data Git stores all the data from the central repository on to the local repository. Open-Source : Git is an open-source that means you can modify its source code according to your needs. The master branch is the main branch that holds the production quality code. It allows to access the repositories of other Version Control Systems like SVN.īranching : It allows the users to make changes in the project without affecting the original version. It also allows the developers to work simultaneously on the same project, without interfering with others’ work.Ĭompatibility : Git is a cross-platform that means it is compatible with all the Operating Systems. Git Featuresĭistributed System : Git is a distributed system that means it allows users to perform work on a project from all over the world. It is mainly used for source code management and helps to share and collaborate on software development projects. It is designed to handle small to large projects easily with speed. Git is a free, open-source and distributed version control system developed by Linus Torvalds. It allows you to revert selected files back to a previous state, revert the entire project back to a previous state, compare changes over time, see who last modified something that might be causing a problem, who introduced an issue and when, and more. It keeps track of every modification to the code in a special kind of database so that you can recall specific versions later. Version control systems are also known as revision control is a component of software configuration management that helps developers manage changes to source code over time.
