Installation and setup

Okay, let's roll up our sleeves and do a little Source Code Control with Git.…Git is a distributed Source Code Control system.…That means that you host the entire repository on your development box and other people host…the same complete repository on their development boxes, and you can exchange files back and forth.…It also means that you can use things like GitHub, which is a cloud-based service to…host repositories in the cloud in order to save your work off of your development system,…if you're working by yourself. Git is free. You can get the bits from git-scm.com.…

And you can use GitHub if your product is open-source to have free-hosting.…If your project is not open-source, you can have private repositories on GitHub for a…very reasonable price. That's what I use on a regular basis, also at github.com.…And they also have their own custom GUI application for both Windows and Mac that allow you to…easily manage your local repositories and syncing to your repositories on GitHub and…keeping the two of them connected together. All right.…
