Outline • Version Control • Centralized Version Control • Distributed version Control • Tools • Mac Tools • Windows Tools • Command Line Usage • Workflows • Individual • Group or Team
What is Version Control? • Records changes to a file or set of files over time so that you can recall specific versions later. • Incremental Changes
Centralized Version Control • Single server contains all versioned files • Clients check out files from the central place, and all changes pushed to server • Has been standard for many years • Disadvantages: • Slow • No redundancy • If server goes down, no local tracking of files
Distributed Version Control • Clients fully mirror the repository • Redundant • All clients have entire history • Easier Collaboration • Multiple workflows • Faster
Which is best? • In most cases, GIT is the better choice. • However, SVN has been around the block and has greater support for automatic deployment, bug tracking, testing, etc.
Simple Workflow • Assuming Gitis installed and you are in project directory. • `gitinit` • `git add –A` • `git commit –m ‘message here’` • `git remote add origin remote-url` • `git push origin master` • `git reset –soft HEAD^`
