How it works
It is done by typing the 'git push' command via terminal or code editor.
Where it is used
It is used in software development processes, especially on platforms such as GitHub or GitLab.
Commonly confused with
It is confused with git pull; While pull retrieves the code from the internet, push sends it to the internet.
Frequently asked questions
