Source Code Management --- GIT - Global Information Tracker
1. What is Version Control System?
Version Control / Revision control / Source Control is is a software that helps software developers to work together and maintain a complete history of their work.
A version control system records the changes you make to your project’s files.
2. Types of Version control system ?
1. Local Version Control System:
The local VCS stores source files within a local system.
2. Centralized Version Control System:
Centralized VCS stores the commit or changes in a single server.
3. Distributed Version Control System:
Distributed VCS stores the changes in local repository and it moves to the remote repository.
3. What is Git ?
Git is a DevOps tool used for source code management.
It is a free and open-source version control system used to handle small to very large projects efficiently.
Git is used to tracking changes in the source code, enabling multiple developers to work together on non-linear development.
4. Key Features of Git ?
1. Works on Distributed System
2. Compatiable with all OS.
3. Allow for non- linear developers ( All around the world any developer can work)
4. Branching
5. Reliable
5. Architecture of Git and Workflow of Git ?
1. Working directory -
Modify files in your working directory
2. Staging area (Index) -
Stage the files and add snapshots of them to your staging area
3. Git directory (Repository)-
Perform a commit that stores the snapshots permanently to your Git directory. Checkout any existing version, make changes, stage them and commit.
6. Setting the configuration of Git ?
Download Git {git website}
sudo yum istall git
sudo apt install git
To check if git is available or not use:
rpm -qa | grep git
git --version
Configuration our Credentials:
When we setup git and before adding bunch of files, We need to fill up username & email and it’s basically git way of creating an account.
git config --global user.name “Karthika” ( Replace)
git config --global user.email “info@gmail.com” (Replace)
git config --list
7. List of commands used in Git ?
These are common Git commands used in various situations:
start a working area:
git init - Create an empty Git repository or reinitialize an existing one.
git clone- Clone a repository into a new directory.
work on the current change:
git add Add file contents to the index
git mv Move or rename a file, a directory, or a symlink
git restore Restore working tree files
git rm Remove files from the working tree and from the index
Examine the history and state:
git bisect Use binary search to find the commit that introduced a bug
git diff Show changes between commits, commit and working tree, etc
git grep Print lines matching a pattern
git log Show commit logs
git show Show various types of objects
git status Show the working tree status
Grow, mark and tweak your common history:
git branch List, create, or delete branches
git commit Record changes to the repository
git merge Join two or more development histories together
git rebase Reapply commits on top of another base tip
git reset Reset current HEAD to the specified state
git switch Switch branches
git tag Create, list, delete or verify a tag object signed with GPG
collaborate:
git fetch Download objects and refs from another repository
git pull Fetch from and integrate with another repository or a local branch
git push Update remote refs along with associated objects.
. 8 . What is git merge conflict ?
Git usually handles feature merges automatically but sometimes while working in a team environment, there might be cases of conflicts such as:
- When two separate branches have changes to the same line in a file
- A file is deleted in one branch but has been modified in the other.
These conflicts have to be solved manually after discussion with the team as git will not be able to predict what and whose changes have to be given precedence.
