Source code version control

For any software project larger than a single-file program, it is critical to maintain a rigorously managed history of file versions. Several new and old software tools are available for performing version control, some of which are free and some offered commercially.

Rather than list the options available for these tools, we will focus on the popular version control system named Git. Git is the version control system used for the Linux operating system source code. Many online Git repositories such as GitHub (https://github.com) are available. Git is free and is available at https://git-scm.com/downloads.

Version control with Git

Vitis contains integrated capabilities for working with Git to version control your application source code. It also has the ability to work with remote repositories such as on GitHub or on an organization-provided Git server.

Git allows multiple developers to work on the same code base and enables each developer to...
