Version Control
A system that tracks every change to your codebase, so you can review history, collaborate, and undo mistakes.
Version control is the practice of recording incremental changes to a codebase over time. Each change is saved as a "commit" with a message describing what changed and why. This creates a full history of the project that you can navigate, compare, and roll back to at any point.
For vibe coders, version control is especially important because AI can make many changes quickly — including wrong ones. Committing frequently means you always have a safe restore point. If an AI refactoring session breaks the application, a single command returns you to the last working state.
Git is the industry standard version control system. Platforms like GitHub and GitLab host Git repositories and add collaboration features like pull requests, code review, and CI/CD pipelines.
