Summary


By the end of this chapter, you should be familiar with SVN and Git Repositories. By working with SVN Repositories you should know, in detail, how to add a new Repository and, how to check out the Repository into a project. After adding and checking out, you should know how to work with the SVN project. This means that you have to know how to commit your local changes, update your local working copy, and know how to use the SVN history for your work.

While working with Git, you have not only seen how to clone a remote Git Repository and work with it within a local project, but also how to create your own local Git Repository. Within your local Git Repository, we had a look at the commit process and how to stage, unstage, and revert files. Finally, we had a look at how to push and pull a Git Repository.

In the next chapter, we will learn how to work in an optimal way with PHP within Aptana Studio.
