Introduction and Importance of Version Control System (VCS) in the Software Development world.

[sarthakkathpalia]

Hey folks 👋
Was thinking to make a detailed article on VCS. Firstly talking about What is VCS (an intro kinda thingy) then the Need of VCS , Types of VCS , and finally touching Git and basic Git terminologies.

How's it? :)

Interesting! Although we already have a few blogs touching the topic of git and github & that too, in detail, but talking specifically about version control system in-depth would be nice!

Here are the blogs that are already present:
https://blog.kubesimplify.com/get-good-at-git
https://blog.kubesimplify.com/git-and-github-a-beginners-guide
https://blog.kubesimplify.com/understanding-the-ins-and-outs-of-git-using-github

If possible, can you pls prepare a rough table to contents with headings/topcs you'll be covering in this blog?! We'll have a better idea as to what all will be included and how would it be useful

Thanks :)

Sure. Here's a rough idea on the topics which I'll be covering in my blog :-

• What is VCS? (basically an Intro to VCS)
• Need of VCS (importance of VCS . Will try to explain using my own example, when I first felt the need of VCS)
• Types of VCS
• Finally talking about Git and basic Git terminologies (init, clone, stage, working tree, etc)

i think we should keep the blog specifically for VCS, couz we already have blogs talking about Git terms and concepts (can link those for that section)

@pavangudiwada @karnatisrinivas would love your suggestions here as well

Hey @sarthakkathpalia , is this something you'd still be interested to work on? If yes, please let us know the tentative date for the 1st draft.
Would really appreciate that, thanks!
