What is Version Control System?
Version Control System manages the entire process
of version and keeps the track of the changes made.

We need VCS to:


track the changes made,
revert back to any versions when needed,
compare the changes made between any two
versions,
to know information like who, when, why made
the changes,
to get all these benefits with minimal effort.
