The VCS merges the changes together. +- **History:** You have a complete history of who changed what, when, and why. This is invaluable for debugging and understanding the project's evolution. +- **Branching:** You can create independent branches to work on new features or fix bugs without affecting the main, stable version of your project. +- **Safety Net:** If you make a mistake, you can easily roll back to a previous, working version. + +## What is Git? + +Git is a **Distributed Version Control System (DVCS)**. This is a key difference from older, centralized systems. + +- **Centralized (e.g., SVN):** There is a single central server that contains all the versioned files, and a number of clients that check out files from that central place. +- **Distributed (e.g., Git):** Every developer has a full copy of the entire project history on their local machine.

The `main` branch is the trunk, and feature branches are the branches that diverge from it. This is the key to parallel development. + +--- + +### Slide 7: Merging + +**Content:** +- Merging combines the work from two branches. +- `git merge <branch-name>` +- Sometimes, you get a **merge conflict**! Don't panic. + +**Speaker Notes:** +- Explain that merging is how you bring a completed feature back into the main line. Briefly explain what a conflict is and that the next module covers how to solve them. + +--- + +### Slide 8: The GitHub Flow + +**Content:** +- Image showing the Fork -> Clone -> Branch -> Change -> Push -> PR -> Merge workflow. +- This is the foundation of open-source collaboration. + +**Speaker Notes:** +- Walk through the entire loop.
