Git was developed by Linus Torvalds in 2005. Git is a distributed version control software. It is a widely used source code management system for software development. It is free and open source software(FOSS). It is useful for Programmers, Web developers, Project managers, Writers and many others. Anyone working with text files, sheets, design files, drawings, etc., can use Git to track versions.
