Open Source Task

Welcome to the Open Source Task! πŸ‘‹
This guide will help you understand the basics of Git and GitHub, helping you get started with version control and open-source collaboration.


🧠 What is Git?

Git is the most commonly used version control system. It tracks changes made to files, allowing you to maintain a history of updates and revert to previous versions if needed. Git makes collaboration easier by enabling multiple people to work on the same project and merge their changes seamlessly.

πŸ“₯ How to Install Git

  1. Go to https://git-scm.com/downloads and download Git for your computer.
  2. During installation, you’ll see an option to select the default branch name (as shown below):
    • βœ… Select "Override the default branch name for new repositories."

    • βœ… Type "main" in the box.

  3. Click Next and complete the installation.

🌐 What is GitHub?

GitHub is a cloud-based Git repository hosting service. It allows individuals and teams to manage and share their code, collaborate on projects, and keep track of version history.
