Why is Git important in DevOps?
Git manages source code and enables collaboration between teams. It tracks changes, allows rollbacks, and integrates with CI/CD pipelines. Every DevOps workflow starts with Git.
What Git concepts should DevOps engineers know?
- Branching - Create feature branches for development
- Merging - Combine code changes and resolve conflicts
- Pull requests - Code review and collaboration
- Git workflows - GitFlow, trunk-based development
