Recording changes

Git operates on the principle of selective recording of changes. Unlike automatically capturing every modification made to your code, Git requires you to explicitly inform it about the changes you want to track and record.

By staging and committing changes selectively, Git gives you granular control over the versioning process. You can choose to commit specific files or even individual lines within a file, ensuring that each commit accurately reflects the intended changes.

This approach provides several benefits:

• Allows you to logically group related changes together, making it easier to review and understand the evolution of your codebase.
• Enables you to revert or modify individual commits without affecting the entire project.
• Helps keep your version history concise and purposeful by excluding unrelated or incomplete changes from commits.
