<h1>Source control</h1>
<p>Source control systems, also known as version control systems, store code
and other static files, such as images, with a history of the changes made to
those files.</p>
<h2>Why is source control necessary?</h2>
<p>Version control systems allow developers to modify code without worrying
about permanently screwing something up. Unwanted changes can be easily rolled
back. Developers can merge changes with other developer's code through
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diff">diff</a> views. </p>
<p>These benefits exist on all software projects therefore version control is
a necessity regardless of time size or the programming ecosystem used. Every
project should immediately begin by using a version control system such
as Git or Mercurial.</p>
<h2>Source Control Systems</h2>
<p><a href="http://git-scm.com/">Git</a> is a free and open source distributed version
control system.</p>
<p><a href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/">Mercurial</a> is similar to Git, also a free
and open source distributed version control system.</p>
<h2>Source Control Third Party Services</h2>
<p><a href="https://github.com/">GitHub</a> is currently the most commonly used source
control platform for using Git.</p>
<p><a href="https://bitbucket.org/">BitBucket</a> provides free Git and Mercurial
repositories for open projects and private repositories for up to five
users. Users pay for hosting private repositories with more than five users.</p>
<h2>Source Control Resources</h2>

<p>This lighthearted guide to the

<p><a href="http://betterexplained.com/articles/a-visual-guide-to-version-control/">A visual guide to version control</a>
is a detailed article with real-life examples for why version control is
necessary in software development.</p>

shows the basic concepts behind version control systems.</p>
<p><a href="http://oss-watch.ac.uk/resources/versioncontrol">What Is Version Control? Why Is It Important For Due Diligence?</a>
