### What is `git` and GitLab?
|
|
|
|
Let's get this info from git's website:
|
|
|
|
> '[Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.'](https://git-scm.com/)'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then from the Wikipedia page about GitLab:
|
|
|
|
> '[GitLab is a web-based Git-repository manager with wiki and issue-tracking features, using an open-source license, developed by GitLab Inc.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GitLab)'
|

**NOTE:** Always have a number of backups of your code. GitLab should house one of a few copies of your projects.
