Git is a free & open source, distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.
By accessing the ‘--global’ option, you can easily set your user name and e-mail address, thus protecting your data and securing it from unauthorized users. Now that your identify is configured, you can easily set up the default text editor, which will be used each time you want to type in a message. By default, it will use the system’s editor, which is Vi or Vim - however, you can modify it with the help of the ‘--global core.editor’ command. Irrespective of the option you choose to work with, the application will immediately initialize a .git directory and pull down all the necessary data. This way, you are able to record all the changes to the current repository with ease.

Every Git clone is a full-fledged repository with complete history and full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a central server. Branching and merging are fast and easy to do.
