What has been one of the most impressive and breakthrough developments of the 2000s in the IT world? No doubt, Git! This version control system was presented by Linus Torvalds in 2005. It became so popular due to a number of things. First, its performance, then flexibility and wide acceptance. And finally, git made it possible for DevOps to commit, share, and solicit feedback on the changes in the code quickly and easily. All of that in bulk confirms the creator’s words that “git is a very powerful set of tools.”
Though, git hosting services, like GitHub, made it easier for developers to work with git. Both of them, git and GitHub, go hand in hand yet have some set of security and compliance regulations that companies need to deal with.
