Git is a distributed version control system that allows multiple people to work on the same project concurrently while keeping track of changes made to the codebase. It was created by Linus Torvalds in 2005 and has since become one of the most popular version control systems used by developers worldwide. Git allows users to create branches, merge changes from different branches, and revert back to previous versions of the code easily. It also provides a secure way to collaborate with others, track issues, and manage releases.
