16 The Yocto Project makes extensive use of Git, which is a
17 free, open source distributed version control system.
18 Git supports distributed development, non-linear development,
19 and can handle large projects.
20 It is best that you have some fundamental understanding
21 of how Git tracks projects and how to work with Git if
22 you are going to use the Yocto Project for development.
23 This section provides a quick overview of how Git works and
24 provides you with a summary of some essential Git commands.

35 Git to your system through your distribution's "software
36 store" (e.g. for Ubuntu, use the Ubuntu Software feature).
