| 00:01 | Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Overview and Installation of Git. |
| 00:06 | In this tutorial, we will learn about
|
| 00:17 | For this tutorial, you will need a working Internet connection. |
| 00:22 | You should also have either
|
| 00:28 | To follow this tutorial you should be familiar with either of the mentioned operating systems |
| 00:36 | First let us learn what is VCS i.e Version Control System. |
| 00:39 | Version Control System is like a backup system. |
| 00:44 | It manages the changes in documents, computer programs and web sites. |
| 00:51 | It provides a historical record of what you have done over time. |
| 00:55 | VCS is also known as revision control, source control and Source Code Management (SCM ). |
| 01:03 | Some examples of VCS are RCS, Subversion and Bazaar. |
| 01:11 | Next let us start with Git. |
| 01:13 | * Git is a distributed version control software. |
| 01:16 | It is a free and open source software. |
| 01:19 | It keeps track of changes made to a file or set of files. |
| 01:24 | It allows developers to work collaboratively. |
| 01:28 | It manages and stores versions of projects. |
| 01:32 | It helps in tracking the project progress history. |
| 01:37 | The salient features of Git are as follows: |
| 01:42 | We can go back and recover previous versions of our work. |
| 01:47 | We can see the complete history of all the changes. |
| 01:52 | Conflicts can be easily resolved using the suggestions given by Git. |
| 01:58 | If there is loss of data, it can be restored from any of the client repositories. |
| 02:05 | Git can be used by programmers,Web developers, Project managers, writers and many others. |
| 02:14 | Anyone working with text files, sheets, design files, drawings, etc., to track versions. |
| 02:22 | People who work collaboratively on an activity or project. |
| 02:28 | Now lets see how Git works. |
| 02:31 | Git actually stores a snapshot of entire project. |
| 02:36 | Snapshot is similar to taking a picture of all the files at that moment. |
| 02:42 | If some files have no changes, Git doesn’t store them again. |
| 02:47 | It links them to the previous version. |
| 02:50 | In the event of failure, the data is restored from the snapshot. |
| 02:56 | Let me show glimpses of some features covered in this series. |
| 03:01 | Basic Commands of Git |
| 03:04 | The git checkout command |
| 03:06 | Inspection and Comparison of Git |

| 03:35 | I have already completed the installation of Git on my system. Now let us verify this. |
| 03:42 | Go to the terminal and type git space hyphen hyphen version and press Enter. |
| 03:50 | We can see the version number of Git displayed. |
| 03:53 | This means that Git is installed successfully. |
