🆚 Git vs. SVN

Git is a free and open-source distributed version control system for tracking changes in source code, originally created by Linus Torvalds for development of the Linux kernel.

It enables code repositories with full history, fast branching and merging, rebasing and cherry-picking, distributed workflows without a central server, and data integrity through cryptographic hashing of commits and file contents.
