Followed by the advent of distributed version control systems (DVCS), Git naturally enables the usage of a pull-based development model, in which developers can copy the project onto their own repository and then push their changes to the original repository, where the integrators will determine the validity of the pull request. Since its ...
The death of the fork. This is by far the most common case. It is easy to declare a fork, but considerable effort to continue independent development and support. A re-merging of the fork (e.g., egcs becoming "blessed" as the new version of GNU Compiler Collection.) The death of the original (e.g. the X.Org Server succeeding and XFree86 dying.)
Git does periodic repacking automatically, but manual repacking is also possible with the git gc command. [46] For data integrity, both the packfile and its index have an SHA-1 checksum [47] inside, and the file name of the packfile also contains an SHA-1 checksum. To check the integrity of a repository, run the git fsck command. [48] [49]
The contributor requests that the project maintainer pull the source code change, hence the name "pull request". The maintainer has to merge the pull request if the contribution should become part of the source base. [12] The developer creates a pull request to notify maintainers of a new change; a comment thread is associated with each pull ...
GitHub (/ ˈ ɡ ɪ t h ʌ b /) is a proprietary developer platform that allows developers to create, store, manage, and share their code. It uses Git to provide distributed version control and GitHub itself provides access control, bug tracking, software feature requests, task management, continuous integration, and wikis for every project.

Branching, in version control and software configuration management, is the duplication of an object under version control (such as a source code file or a directory tree). Each object can thereafter be modified separately and in parallel so that the objects become different. In this context the objects are called branches. The users of the ...
The name "Bazaar" was originally used by a fork of the GNU arch client tla.This fork is now called Baz to distinguish it from the current Bazaar software. [12] Baz was announced in October 2004 by Canonical employee Robert Collins [13] and maintained until 2005, when the project then called Bazaar-NG (the present Bazaar) was announced as Baz's successor.
