Version control software is the software used by programmers to keep track of changes in a project over time. This results in safer experimentation, the ability to work on different directions at the same time, and make sure that progress is always made toward a great ending.

Great, but why should the programmers be the only ones who have this power?

In Version Control for Everyone, you'll discover how to use version control software in other kinds of work: writing, teaching, graphic and web design, and more. Learn how to use these tools to unlock the power of making your mistakes more quickly (we all make them - might as well do it more quickly!) and getting to the best result faster.
