Where Git fits
Choose it when you need a reliable history of code or structured project files.
Check before you choose
Set your author identity and learn the difference between committing locally and publishing to a remote.
Find the right edition
Start with the destination for your device or the publisher's website. Use the current requirements and terms there to confirm the edition you need.
Compare the workflow
Start with the tools your project requires. An editor does not replace a language runtime, and a graphical Git client does not remove the need to understand branches and published changes.
