Version Control Repository

Version control, also known as Source Code Management (SCM), is an essential tool for software development and collaborative projects. It enables teams to keep track of changes made to their codebase over time, maintain a detailed history of who made what changes and when, and collaborate seamlessly on different aspects of a project. Whether it's rolling back to a previous version, resolving conflicts between concurrent edits, or branching out for feature development, having a version control repository become crucial in software development.

The concept of version control can also be critical to various non-software development situations where it is necessary to track changes, maintain a history, collaborate, and manage different versions of documents or any other types of files. It is usually referred to as Content Management.
