It provides version control through Git, which allows developers to keep track of changes to their code, collaborate with others, and easily roll back to previous versions if needed. GitHub also offers a range of features, such as issue tracking, project management tools, and code review capabilities, to help teams work together more effectively. It has become a popular platform for open-source software development and hosts millions of projects, ranging from small personal projects to large enterprise software.Why GitHub is used for software development:Version Control: GitHub uses Git, which is a powerful and widely used version control system. It allows developers to keep track of changes to their code and collaborate with others, ensuring that everyone is working on the same version of the code.Collaboration: GitHub provides a platform for developers to work together on projects, whether they are in the same office or on opposite sides of the world. Teams can easily share code, review changes, and collaborate on new features.Community: GitHub is a hub for open source projects, providing a platform for developers to contribute to projects created by others. This fosters a community of developers who can share knowledge and collaborate on projects.Code Review: GitHub provides tools for code review, allowing team members to easily review and comment on each other's code. This helps ensure that code is of high quality and meets the project's requirements.Project Management: GitHub provides tools for project management, including issue tracking and milestones. This allows teams to keep track of project progress, identify and prioritize issues, and set goals for the project.Integration: GitHub can be integrated with many other tools and services, such as continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) tools, which help automate the development process and ensure that code is deployed to production environments quickly and efficiently.High-level overview of what you will learn:Git: Git is a popular version control system that allows you to track changes to code and collaborate with others. Understanding how Git works and how to use it is essential for working with GitHub.Repositories: A repository is a central location for your code. You can create a new repository on GitHub, and then upload your code to it. Repositories can be either public or private, and they can be used to collaborate with others or manage your own projects.Branches: Branches are used in Git to isolate changes to code and work on new features or fixes. Understanding how to create and manage branches is important for working with Git and GitHub.Pull Requests: Pull requests are a way to propose changes to code and collaborate with others. They allow you to submit changes to a repository and have them reviewed by others before they are merged into the main codebase.Issues: Issues are used to track bugs, feature requests, and other tasks. They can be used to manage projects and prioritize work, and they can be assigned to specific users to ensure that work is distributed effectively.Collaborating with others: GitHub provides a range of tools for collaborating with others, including pull requests, code reviews, and issue tracking. Understanding how to use these tools is essential for working with others and ensuring that code is of high quality.Project management: GitHub provides tools for project management, including issue tracking and milestones. Understanding how to use these tools can help you manage your own projects more effectively, as well as contribute to larger projects that use GitHub for project management.This is only a high level overview. Below are the topics covered in this course (By the time of this writing)Section 1:IntroductionNeed For Version Control System and Git Part 1Need For Version Control System and Git Part 2VCS-How it worksDistributed VCSInstalling GitGit CLI vs Git Bash vs Git GUIBasic Bash CommandsWhat exactly is Git CommitInitializing the project and Exploring dot git folderConfiguring Git Credentials and exploring local global system configsStaging and Unstaging and checking statusUnderstanding Commit with multiple use casesSection 2:Git Deep DiveSha1 Hashing AlgorithmGit Internals (All about Object Database) Part 1Git Internals (All about Object Database) Part 2Git Internals -
