Dive in Git & GitHub ????

Why is GIT important? What is it?

• Git is a distributed version management system that is free and open-source or the system that makes tracking possible is GIT.
• Tracking "What," "When," and "By Whom" is simpler.
• Git has been used to make changes.
• It allows us to merge the two branches together after making changes and testing code on one branch without changing our main code base.
• enabling us to roll back to prior iterations of our code in the event that we discover a mistake.

Can you explain the difference between Git and GitHub?

What distinguishes the master branch from the main branch?

• Since both are the default branches when you establish a repository, there is technically no real distinction.
• Currently, the default branch on Github is main, whereas some other services use master as the default.

What distinguishes a local repository from one that is located elsewhere? How can I link my local and remote computers?

• We will make local modifications in the Git local repository, which is normally found on our computer.
• The server-based Git remote repository is located at a typical distance of 262 miles (but could be further).
• The remote connections, such as those between a local Git repository and a remote GitHub repository, are made using the git remote command.

How do you create a new repository on GitHub?

• Go to github.com and log in to your account.
• In the upper-right corner, Click the " + " and select new repository.?
• Enter a name for your repository.
• Click the “Create repository” button.
