What is Git and GitHub?

Git is a version control system, meaning that it keeps track of every version of your codebase. This way, if you need to find or revert to a previous version, you can do so easily. Because it's so easy to use, Git has become one of the most popular tools among the developer community. Git works with any type of file, so it doesn't matter what programming language you're working within the codebase

Github is a website that allows you to store your code on the web. Storing your code on the web has a number of advantages, including backing up your code and collaborating on your code with others.

git commit -m "<message>"

---

History of all the commits

git log

Updating the committed changes to the remote server

git push -u origin <branch_name>
