Key Concepts

• Commit: A snapshot of your code at a specific point in time.
• Branch: A separate timeline for developing features or fixing bugs.
• Checkout: The act of switching between branches. It moves your “HEAD” pointer.
• Merge: Combining the history and changes from one branch into another.
• HEAD: The current location (pointer) of where you are working in the Git history.
