Details

Git is well-known as “the stupid content tracker” made by Linus Torvalds after problems with BitKeeper licensing in early 2000s. It was designed to be fast, efficient, and capable of handling large projects with ease - as Linux kernel itself is one of the biggest open source projects ever created. Today git is de-facto standard for version control in software development, with a vast ecosystem of plugins, integrations, and hosting services built around it.

This image contains the Git version control system provided by upstream Debian team. It can be used in Kubernetes clusters to manage source code repositories, track changes, but also as sidecar container for CI/CD pipelines to interact with git repositories.
