What is a Git

What is a Git?

Git is a distributed Version control and Source control system, a distributed version control system does not need a centralized repository / server. Each user has his own copy of the repository. Every user repository or local working directory is a full-fledged repository on its own and can manage the version control by its own without depending on a centralized server.

The Git version control system is different from the conventional version control systems like VSS/SVN. These conventional version control systems store the files in a centralized server and each user performs some operations in his local and commits the changes to the server, however this does not hold good for Git, since Git is a distributed version control system, each working copy can fully manage file versions without depending on the central server.
