❄️What is Git and Why it is important?
Git is a distributed version control system that helps developers to manage their code changes.
🛡️why it is crucial:
Version Tracking:Git enables developers and users to track changes to files, allowing them to revert to specific versions as needed.
Collaboration:Multiple individuals can collaborate on the same project and seamlessly merge changes.
Local and Remote Repositories:Git stores files and their history locally but can also be utilized with online hosts such as Bitbucket or GitHub for collaborative purposes.
🌳🎓 Difference between the Main Branch and Master Branch?
🌳 Main branch: It's also referred to as the default branch in Git, typically where the most development happens.
🎓 Master branch: Historically used as the main integration branch, but some prefer using "main" instead due to its more comprehensive meaning.
🐻🐙 Difference between Git and GitHub?
🐻 Git: A software tool for local version control. Files and their history are stored on a local computer.
🐙 GitHub: A remote platform built on top of Git, where we can upload changes, collaborate, and share code with others.
🌀 How to create a new repository on GitHub?
Steps to create a repo:
Log in to GitHub.
Click the “+” icon in the top right corner and select “New repository.”
Name your repository (e.g., “Devops”).
Choose visibility (public or private).
Initialize with a README (optional).
Click “Create repository.”
⚡ Difference between Local and Remote Repositories?
📁 Local Repository: Stored on the local computer and used Git commands to manage it.
🌐 Remote Repository: Hosted on platforms like GitHub, encouraging collaboration and sharing.
📝Tasks: Connecting Local to Remote Repository
🐾 Step 1: Set Git username and email
# Set Git username
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
# Show the username
git config --global --get user.name
# Set Git useremail
git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
# Show the useremail
git config --global --get user.email
🐾 Step 2: Create a new repository on GitHub (e.g., “Devops”)
🐾 Step 3: In the local repository, add the remote URL
# Initialize a Git repo locally.
git init
git remote add origin <repository_url>
🐾 Step 4: Create a new file in Devops/Git/Day-02.txt & add some content to it
🐾 Step 5: Push local commits to the remote
git push -u origin main
OR
git push
