‭Install Git into the System‬
‭1.‬ L ‭ inux - Simply open up a new terminal and install Git via your distribution's package‬
gA
‭manager. For Ubuntu, the command is:‬‭sudo apt-get‬‭install git‬
‭2.‬ ‭Windows - we recommend‬‭git for windows‬‭as it offers‬‭both a GUI client and a BASH‬
‭command line emulator.‬
‭3.‬ ‭OS X - The easiest way is to install Homebrew, and then just run‬‭brew install git‬

eT

‭‬ G
● ‭ it is a version control system that is used for tracking changes to files.‬
‭●‬ ‭It does this through a series of‬‭snapshots of your‬‭project.‬‭It works with those‬
‭snapshots to version and manage your source code, and it does this in a simple way.‬

‭GIT vs Github vs Gitlab‬
‭●‬ G ‭ it is a version control system, while GitHub and GitLab are web-based Git‬
‭repositories.‬
‭●‬ ‭GitHub is a company that provides Git hosting, and it offers both a cloud-based‬
‭hosting service and on-premises enterprise versions.‬
‭●‬ ‭GitLab is similar to GitHub, but it is an open-source Git hosting platform. It provides a‬
‭web-based interface for working with Git repositories, as well as a range of tools for‬
‭collaboration, project management, and continuous integration.‬
‭Git is a version control system‬‭, GitHub is a Git hosting‬‭service, and GitLab is an open-source‬

‭Staging‬
‭●‬ ‭Git has the concept of a "staging area".‬
‭●‬ ‭You can think of this like a blank canvas, which holds the changes which you would‬
‭like to commit.‬
‭●‬ ‭It starts out empty, but you can add files to it (or even single lines and parts of files)‬
‭with the git add command, and finally commit everything (create a snapshot) with git‬

tin

‭ git bisect bad‬

$
‭# Mark the known good state of the code:‬
es

‭ git bisect good <commit-hash>‬

$
‭Git will then checkout a commit in the middle of the good and bad commits. You can test the‬
‭code to see if it is working as expected. If it is, you can mark it as "good":‬
eT

‭ git bisect good‬

$
‭If the code is not working, you can mark it as "bad":‬
‭Th

‭ git bisect bad‬

$
‭Git will then checkout another commit and you can repeat steps 4 and 5 until Git bisect has‬
‭found the specific commit that caused the issue.‬

‭Finally, end the bisect process:‬

‭ git bisect reset‬

$
‭This is a simple example of how you can use Git bisect to find the specific commit that‬
‭caused a change or bug in your code. Bisect is a powerful tool that can save you a lot of‬
‭time and effort in debugging and fixing issues in your code.‬

‭ hat is GIT?‬
W
‭GIT is a version control and source code management (SCM) system that is designed to‬
‭handle both small and large projects quickly and efficiently.‬
‭What is GIT version control?‬
‭●‬ ‭GIT version control enables you to monitor the evolution of a group of files (code‬
‭files).‬
‭●‬ ‭It allows for the creation of several versions of a file collection. Each version saves a‬
‭snapshot of the files at a specific point in time, and the snapshot can be used to‬
‭revert the collection of files. (The code can be developed in different versions of‬
‭Java, and can be merged in Git)‬
‭●‬ ‭VCS permits switching between these versions. These versions are often maintained‬
‭in a location known as a repository. (You can move between Java versions during the‬
‭development process.)‬

‭the files.‬
tin
