Version Control
Source-it
What is version control?
• Vers ion Control (VC) a lso known as source control or rev is ion control
• Vers ion control – management of changes in documents , computer programs or other co l lect ion of informat ion f i les
• Revis ion control i s any k ind of pract ice that t racks and prov ides contro l over changes to source code
• Vers ion Contro l Systems (VCS) – GIT , SVN, C learCase , CVS, Perforce
Source-it
Why do we need version control?
• Col laborat ion
• Work with d i f ferent vers ions of the code
• Contro l the d i f ferent vers ions of the software
• Meet lega l , secur i ty and management requirements
• Track changes of the code and conf igurat ion f i les

What is GIT?
• GIT – Free of charge Dist r ibuted Vers ion Contro l System (DVCS)
• GIT has been created in 2005 by L inus Tor valds for the development of the L inux Kernel
• Every GIT directory on every computer i s a fu l lrepos i tory with complete h istory and fu l l vers ion -t rack ing capabi l i t ies
• Every GIT directory i s independent of network access or centra l ser ver

GIT basic terms
Synchronization actions (network-related actions)
• Clone – making a copy of a remote repository onto a local directory
• Fetch – synchronize the local repository from the remote repository
• Pull – update the local working directory for the current branch from the remote matching branch
• Push – update the remote branch with the latest version of the current branch and/or tags on the local repository
Local work terms (locally without network)
• Add – stage files to be tracked by GIT
• Commit – save local changes into the local repository
• Branch – a repository version pointing to some path in the repository structure
• Checkout – update the local working directory to a certain version of the repository
• Merge – sync. a certain branch of the local repository from another branch or tags or version

GIT in practice
Source-it
Common GIT workflows
• Clone a repos i tory
• Synchronize the loca l repos i tory
• Commit a change
• Create a new branch
• Switch between branches
• Merge f rom branch to branch
• Pul l request
Source-it
Clone a repository
In Eclipse:
Source-it
Synchronize the local repository
From command line:
g i t fetch or ig in
g i t pul l or ig in master
g i t push or ig in master
Source-it
Commit a change
From command line:
g i t add –a l l
g i t commit –m ”source - i t change”
Source-it
Create a new branch
From command line:
g i t branch source - i t
g i t checkout source - i t
W h i c h i s e q u i v a l e n t t o :
g i t checkout –b source - i t
Source-it
Switch between branches
From command line:
g i t checkout master
g i t checkout source- i t
Source-it
Merge from branch to branch
From command line:
g i t checkout master
g i t merge source - i t
Source-it
Pull request
• Each GIT hosting service may handle pull request differently
• Pull requests are best for code-review and collaboration
