About Git
Git is the distributed version-control system that underpins modern software. Every clone is a full repository with complete history, so you can branch, commit and merge locally at lightning speed and sync with others whenever you are ready.
Branching is cheap and fast by design, making experiments safe, and its data model has made it the backbone of GitHub, GitLab and virtually every serious codebase.
