Git - Give it a Try

Git is an open-source distributed version control system which was designed and implemented targeting speed and efficiency.

Most of the times, your first Git experience may not be something you really like as you wont get the checkout->change->commit->update->change->commit->...routine that you used to have in a conventional version control system. Its different ... but in a way its really cool.

Every Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with complete history and full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a central server.

Git was originally written by Linus Torvalds the guy who initiated the development of the Linux kernel and later became the chief Architect of the Linux operating system.
