What Git means
Each saved change is a commit. Branches let developers work on features separately, then merge them back once reviewed.
Platforms such as GitHub and GitLab host Git repositories online and add code review and automated deployment.

Git
Git is a version control system that records every change to code, so developers can collaborate, review work, and undo mistakes safely.
Example
A change breaks the checkout. The team reverts to the previous commit in minutes, then fixes the issue on a branch.
Why it matters
Git is a baseline professional skill; working without it makes teamwork and recovering from errors slow and risky.
