Git Architecture

Git Architecture

Git maintains an architecture to control the file/repository versions, files can be modified in the local working folder staged (indexed) in the staging area before committing it to the local repository, later changes from the local repository will be pushed to the remote repository from where other users can get the changes.

We shall see about each of these stages and operations in detail in further posts.

The below diagram gives a picture of the various operations/stages involved in managing files in Git.
