Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. Git is lightning fast and has a huge ecosystem of GUIs, hosting services, and command-line tools.
Git is a distributed version control software. Version control is a way to save changes over time without overwriting previous versions. Being distributed means that every developer working with a Git repository has a copy of that entire repository – every commit, every branch, every file.
GitHub is a complete platform that frees us from menial tasks and enables us to do our best work. Create issues and manage projects with tools that adapt to your code. Create space for open-ended conversations alongside your project. Assign initial reviews to Copilot for greater speed and quality.
