Version Control System

Version control system is a system that keeps track of changes to a set of files for a certain project. You can recall all specific versions of your file later. Actually any file on your computer is placed under version control. A VCS allows you to revert file to a previous version or even revert the whole project back to a certain version. It allows you to see what when changes are made and who modified it. It also allows you to recover yourself easily from a messed up project.

Generally, there are three kinds of version control system, which are local, centralized and distributed VCSs. Figures are illustrated below. Local Version Control
