Many software developers use git daily, and actually understanding it will give a boost to your resume 🚀 GitHub is not git, to start with. Understandably, a lot of people mix the two up. GitHub is a website where git-based projects can be hosted. Git is a kind of version control system (VCS) that facilitates tracking file changes. For instance, git can assist you in identifying precisely what changed, who changed it, and why when you edit a file. It is helpful for organising the work of several persons working on a project and for monitoring progress by saving "checkpoints". It can be used to keep track of changes to artwork and design files or while writing an article. Although not the only version control system available, Git is unquestionably the most widely used.
