Sites such as GitHub, Bitbucket and Launchpad provide free DVCS hosting expressly supporting independent branches, such that the technical, social and financial barriers to forking a source code repository are massively reduced, and GitHub uses "fork" as its term for this method of contribution to a project.
The users of the version control system can branch any branch. Branches are also known as trees, streams or codelines. The originating branch is sometimes called the parent branch, the upstream branch (or simply upstream, especially if the branches are maintained by different organizations or individuals), or the backing stream.
The command to create a local repo, git init, creates a branch named master. [61] [111] Often it is used as the integration branch for merging changes into. [112] Since the default upstream remote is named origin, [113] the default remote branch is origin/master. Some tools such as GitHub and GitLab create a default branch named main instead.
Magit (/ ˈ m æ d ʒ ɪ t / MA-jit or / ˈ m ʌ ɡ ɪ t / MUH-git [2]) is an interface to the Git version control system, available as a GNU Emacs package [3] [4] written in Emacs Lisp.It is available through the MELPA package repository, [5] on which it is the most-downloaded non-library package, with over 4.3 million downloads as of September 2024.
However, patch commutation can be proven to produce "correct" merge results [4] where other merge strategies are mostly heuristics that try to produce what users want to see. The Unix program flipdiff from the "patchutils" package implements patch commutation for traditional patches produced by diff -u.
The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 7, IEEE Std 1003.1-2008, 2016 Edition Source Code Control System ( SCCS ) is a version control system designed to track changes in source code and other text files during the development of a piece of software.
Algorithmic and code efficiency (data need only be encoded once and branch table code is usually compact), and the potential to attain high data compression ratios. For example, when compressing country names to country codes, a string such as "Central African Republic" can be compressed to a single index, resulting in large savings ...
Gitea (/ ɡ ɪ ˈ t iː / [3]) is a forge software package for hosting software development version control using Git as well as other collaborative features like bug tracking, code review, continuous integration, kanban boards, tickets, and wikis.
