In this chapter, we have learned how to use Git efficiently. We have explored different recommended good practices that can ease the SDLC and also help in writing better maintainable code. Git hooks can help us automate a lot of linting and we have learned how we can use Git hooks in our project. We also saw how we can use GitHub and GitHub Actions in the Django project, which can help us automate multiple workflows.
