Proper version control is traditionally not done in the world of automation, which is a big shame. The question should not be whether version control should be used or not. The question should instead be what version control system should be used. In this part we will get an introduction to version control in general, and Git in particular. We will start with an introduction to some basic concepts of version control and then show you how you can put your automation projects under version control using Git, using free and open-source tools that are traditionally used in the software industry. You'll learn how to do proper 100% free and Git-based version control using TwinCAT 3! Let's start demanding more from our automation vendors and demand that the tooling for version control should be included by default, and get out of the dark ages!
