Git & GitHub

Today’s Topics
 Why Version Control Systems
 Traditional Version Control Systems
 Why Git?
 What is GitHub?
 Git Shell & GitHub UI Demo
 Hands-On with Git & GitHub

We all have done it – Isn’t It

We all have done it – Isn’t It
Because we were not told about Version Control System

Version Control System

Version Control System
Version control systems are softwares that manage changes to
files e.g. documents, images, code, basically everything

What you get from a Version Control system
• Saves you from creating multiple backups of your files
• Allows multiple people to work on same file
• Tracks changes and also who have made those changes
• Easy to switch back to older versions as and when required
• Makes you more productive
Some of the major benefits of using a Version Control System are listed below :

Traditional Tools for Version Control
Open Source
 CVS
 SVN
Proprietary
 IBM Rational ClearCase
 Perforce

Problem with Client Server Model
Client-Server version control systems work on a centralized model which has a
single repository to which users check-in and check-out
Some of the major benefits of using a Version Control System are listed below :
• Version Control is not available on local systems
• If the central server gets corrupted the entire history is lost

What’s the Solution ?

Distributed Version Control
Distributed Version Control Systems (DVCS) don’t rely on a central server. It allows one
to clone the repository on their own hard drive with entire history of the project
Benefits of using a Distributed Version Control System are listed below :
• With DVCS version control is also available on local systems
• No single point of failure as each user have the repository with
entire history
• Allows you to perform all actions locally, even when not connected
to Internet

Welcome to Git

Git
Initially developed by Linus Torvalds, Git is a distributed version control system
Design Philosophy
• Free and Open source
• Blazingly Fast
• Distributed
• Data Assurance

Git Repository Structure
A local repository consists of three partitions maintained by Git.
1. The first one is the WORKING DIRECTORY which holds the actual files.
2. The second one is the INDEX which acts as a STAGING AREA
3. Finally the third one is the HEAD which points to the last commit made.

<- Local Repository

What is GitHub?
GitHub is a web-based Git repository hosting service with more than 28 million repos
Provides features like Code Comparison, Code Sync and Git shell

A Typical Day with Git & GitHub
> Branch
> Commit
> Submit Pull Request
> Review > Deploy > Merge

Demo: GitHub GUI & Shell

Sample Commands
# sync-ing the local from remote Github repo
> git pull https://github.com/prithvirajbose/jws.git
# adding to staging area
> git init
> git add *
> git commit -m “v1.0"
# push to remote Github repo
> git push -u origin master
