Workflow

key steps involved in using Git:
- Clone
  - The first step is cloning a remote repository to your local machine.
  - It creates a local copy of the project’s files and history on your computer.
- Branch
  - create a new branch to work on a specific task or feature.
  - Branching isolates the local changes from main codebase until it can be merged.
- Work
  - Changes that are made to the files in your branch, such as adding new features, fixing bugs, or making alterations.
- Commit
  - As changes are made, you periodically commit them to your local repository.
  - Each commit is represented as a snapshot of the project at a particular time.
- Pull
  - To incorporate the changes made by other developers, you can pull the latest changes from the remote repository.
- Merge
  - Once your work is completed and tested, you can merge the changes into the main branch.
  - This integrates your changes with the rest of the project.
- Push
  - The last step is to push your changes or local commits to the remote repository, so that your work is shared with other team members.
