The Git feature that really makes it stand apart from nearly every other SCM out there is its branching model. Git allows and encourages you to have multiple local branches that can be entirely independent of each other. The creation, merging, and deletion of those lines of development takes seconds. This means that you can do things like:

With Git, every time you commit, or save the state of your project, Git basically takes a picture of what all your files look like at that moment and stores a reference to that snapshot. To be efficient, if files have not changed, Git doesn’t store the file again, just a link to the previous identical file it has already stored.

Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. Git is easy to learn and has a tiny footprint with lightning fast performance.

This chapter will be about getting started with Git. We will begin by explaining some background on version control tools, then move on to how to get Git running on your system and finally how to get it set up to start working with.

Git 项目通常由一个工作目录和一个位于顶层的 ".git " 子目录组成。 除其他内容外，.git 目录还包含一个压缩对象数据库，代表项目的完整历史；一个 "index" 文件，将历史记录与当前工作区的内容相链接；以及指向历史记录的命名指针，如标签和分支头。

如果你想从源码安装 Git，需要安装 Git 依赖的库：autotools、curl、zlib、openssl、expat 和 libiconv。 如果你的系统上有 dnf （如 Fedora）或者 apt （如基于 Debian 的系统）， 可以使用对应的命令来安装最少的依赖以便编译并安装 Git 的二进制版：
