It’s been a long time since my previous post, but let’s continue this serie about distributed systems with a tool that a lot of people use every day: git.

Git is a versioning tool. Unlike some systems like subversion, you don’t need to have a server to use git. Every member of the project own a (partial or not) copy of the project and can directly send data to another member. So, even if today a lot of people use platforms like Gitea, GitLab, GitHub, etc. it’s possible to work without any of them (can be useful when the platform is down).
