2.  CVS is a version control system, an
important component of Source
Configuration Management (SCM). Using
it, you can record the history of sources
files, and documents.
 CVS may be used in any platform/OS, such
as windows, linux, macOS etc.
 In windows we require cygwin for using
CVS.

3.  It is based on client-server architecture.
 Version control system software keeps track of
all work and all changes in a set of files, and
allows several developers (potentially widely
separated in space and/or time) to collaborate.

4. There are many tools for CVS in windows, such
as: tortoiseCVS, git etc.
Here we are installing git. The steps are as
follows:
 Download cygwin.exe for
http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe
 Install cygwin in default cases.

7.  It is to remember that local root directory
should be c:program filesmozila firefox

8.  Click on ‘next’ for every other step.
 Next thing is to choose a download site from
the list to download packages.

9.  After downloading, select all(by default)
packages.

10.  After completing installation of cygwin click on
the ‘finish’ button.

11.  After installing cygwin, now download
msysgit exe file from
http://www.git-scm.com/download.
 While installing git, the points worth
remembering are:
 Destination location should be ‘c:program
filesgit’where should setup be installed
 The select start menu folder should be ‘Git’
where the setup place the program’s shortcut

12. Installation continues…

13. Installation continues…

14. Installation continues…
Adjust your path environment to ‘run Git from windows command prompt

15. Installation continues…
On completing installation click on the ‘finish’ button.

16. After installation both i.e. cygwin and Git, we can see
that there are shortcut icons have been created on our
desktop.

17. On double clicking ‘Git Bash’ icon, we get the window
as in given picture:

18. Now the next step is to create an account on the ‘Github - the social coding
center’.
The url is http://github.com/plans

19. As visible here, SSH key is not necessary for signup.

20. After signing up, first thing we are to do is to create a repository
(where you’ll put your project)

21. Introducing yourself to Git:

23. Now on seeing in our system, (by default) in c:documents and settingsadministrator,
We get the ‘jasontest’, in this we can open readme.

24. We can also update the readme, can add new files as well in ‘jaontest’ directory.

32. That’s all, how we use Git as a Control Version
System.
Everything you do is going to end up going the
folder ‘jasontest’ or the repository you’ve
created.

33. Thank you…
