Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. Git is easy to learn and has a tiny footprint with lightning fast performance.

Git has a vast number of operations for version control wherein team members can update their projects and add or remove necessary elements.

Some of these operations are:

1.git int : creates empty repository in current directory.

2.git add . : adds all files in directory to staging area of repository.

3.git status : shows status of all files : commited, not commited, in staging area etc.

4.git commit : commits all files in staging area.

5.git commit -m: commits and adds message to the commit.

6.git checkout : helps switch from one branch to another.

7.git branch : shows all branches in repository, current branch is marked with *.

8.git merge : merges two branches in fast forward manner.

9.git merge --no-ff : merges two branches in no fast forward mannner.

10.git rebase : changes the base of your branch from one commit to another.
