Overall Satisfaction with Git

Git is used mostly as a source version controlling system which allows developers to collaborate with one another. It helps teams to contribute to various projects by pushing code to GIT. It can be used for release versioning. It is helpful to know which version has been released in production and at what codebase.
  • Flexibility
  • Version history
  • Merge conflict
  • Amending commits in remote repo
  • Collaboration has been very easy.
  • Backup of the code helps in versioning.
Git is more advanced and easier to use. It has a very simple UI and a very efficient command-line tool. Git gives you flexibility and performance for the price, and has greatly increased the complexity of workflow. The overall performance is good. It caches information locally and can access remote servers when needed. You can easily move files from your local repo to Git.
Git is an excellent tool for collaboration and release version control. It helps you to track what changes were made to the project to reduce debugging. It is easier to move files from your local repo to Git. With respect to security, it lacks some features. Data can be easily downloaded by other users if it is not private.

Git is well suited for collaboration. It can be used for multi-branch repositories and managing branch-heavy workflows. Collaborating is easier in Git. The disadvantage of using Git is that it is less secure. If the project is open source then it is fine, but Git charges for having a secured repository. Meanwhile, it offers private repos for free tier licenses.
