Git: Difference between revisions

Oftentimes when working on a hobby operating system, files end up being lost or broken, and having a backup of an older version is useful. Git (not to be confused with [[W:GitHub|GitHub]]) is a Version Control System, which can be used to push backups of a version of a project (known as a repository, or "repo") to a remote server. This can be a private repository, or a public repository to share work with other developers, in the case of many [https[W://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-source_softwaresource software|open source]] projects.
