git

Description:

• Version control

Git storage places:

1. Stash
   • A place to hide modifications while you work on something else.
2. Workspace
   • Also called ‘working copy’, ‘working tree’ or just ‘checkout’
   • Local checkout of your code.
   • It’s any directory on your filesystem that has a repository associated with it (typically indicated by the presence of a sub-directory within it named .git).
   • It includes all the files and sub-directories in that directory
3. Index
   • A staging area for file changes to commit.
   • Before you “commit” (or checkin) files, you need to first add them to the index.
   • This is also called “current directory cache”, “staging area”, “cache” or “staged files
4. Local repository
   • A directory named .git that contains all of your necessary repository files — a Git repository skeleton.
   • Typical branches: main, master, feature-x, bugfix-y.
   • The local repository has exactly the same features and functionality as any other Git repository.
5. Upstream repository
   • A repository of your code to share and collaborate with other developers.
   • It’s hosted on some the Internet or a remote, eg. Github.
   • The default name is origin.
     • Typical branches here: main, master, shared-feature-x, release-y.
     • Also called ‘remote repository’, or just ‘remote’.
