Verified User Chose Git What I know is Perforce and CVS, such other repos tend to store deltas while Git stores the snapshots of the stuff as their commit ID's.

Verified User Chose Git Gitlab provides similar features like Git. Git is more robust, secure and developer-friendly to work on. Incentivized Helpful? Balázs Kiss Software Developer in Engineering at Webvalto Ltd. (Banking, 51-200 employees) Chose Git There are not many surviving alternatives for Git (maybe SVN) which in itself is quite meaningful.

Incentivized Helpful? Cristian Bodnarasec Senior Software Development Manager in Information Technology at eSilicon (Semiconductors, 501-1000 employees) Chose Git Compared to SVN, Git has a decentralized approach which increases collaboration in the team by enabling the local stored branches. There is no need to be connected to the repository(via an internet link) to work and commit code. Besides the fact that the performance of Git is … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Git I do not have much experience with other version control tools. Git is highly used everywhere and it is hard to find a development team that isn't using it.

Gabriel Samaroo Senior Software Engineer in Engineering at Rocketrip (Computer Software, 11-50 employees) Chose Git Git is the best Source Control Management Tool I've used.

Git has all the features necessary, as well as a very large community of … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Git Git is by far the best version control system out there.

Verified User Chose Git For us, we use both Git and GitHub so they were a package. I suppose you could use Git with another VCS/hosting service to track changes if it fit well enough, but for us we just went with design out of the box. We pay for the GitHub private repository for the extra security. Incentivized Helpful?
