We use this solution to host our software, and where we need to develop new features and new functionality, we create new branch from our existing software, work on our branch, develop it, test it, validate it, and then merge it with the master or main software.

As a student, I used Git to store my source code and versioning. Whenever I do modifications, I can roll back the session if needed. It's the same at work, but we use Git to store documents.

Mohammed Fareed - PeerSpot reviewer
Azure DevOps Lead at DXC Technology

We have our code on GitHub, and we need to download the code from GitHub. We installed Git on our local system. We can use commands like Git clone to get a copy of the code repository from GitHub on our local system. The latest version I've used is 2.38. 

Once the code is on our system, we can do some code changes and local testing independently without affecting the production server. It does not affect GitHub. When we are satisfied with the code changes and testing, we can push our code changes from local Git to the GitHub repository. We have about 10 users on Git.

We plan to use Git more in the future. We will upgrade to GitHub Enterprise, a paid tool. We need an advanced level of Git.

I use Git to manage my personal projects involving web basics, web design, and web pages. I am able to clone most things using Git.

I use it for web design version control. I also conduct a lot of research on open-source technologies that we can install using Git.

I have discovered that most of the solutions offered on Git can also be found on Docker.

We use Git for storing software, development, and tracking versions. We have plans to use it for ODI as well, mainly to unify software version tracking. Although ODI already has its own internal versioning control, we can also transfer it to Git.

MV
Consultant/Software Engineer at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees

Our primary use case is source control and code checking. We used it as version control for collaboration projects. The most important use case is being able to look into the code. Somebody can publish the code publicly in a standard format, which organizes the standard format of code. Then, the team follows the structure of the README file and the code structure.

I also used this solution to make my resume stand out.

Senior Performance Engineer at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees

Git is used for version control.

Our extensive IT department collaborates on various projects, utilizing Git to manage versions effectively. One significant advantage is the ability to maintain multiple versions of the same code, even when offline. This is particularly beneficial in scenarios where internet connectivity is not available, enabling individuals to work on their code seamlessly. Ultimately, this is a crucial benefit for our team's productivity and market competitiveness.

The most used case for it is managing code versions when working on a project with many developers. After we merge it, the dash is merged in the master dash. Next, when we merge its branch to replace it with the master and resolve conflicts, we collaborate to finish the project.
