Github is a repository service which enables users to collaborate on projects, all the while keeping track of changes when they occur and who made those changes. It is a web-based platform used for version control. GitHub has over 650,000 developers registered on the site, hosting more than 500,000 unique open source projects and 1.8million total repositories.
