  • A code repository is required to keep all project-related code in one place

  • Collaboration among users and intervention for debugging purposes

Git can be downloaded from https://git-scm.com/downloads:

Multiple platforms versions such as Linux, Windows, and so on are available within desktop and web flavors.
