Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.
What is the purpose of Version Control
The purpose of version control is to allow software teams to track changes to the code while enhancing communication and collaboration between team members. Version control facilitates a continuous, simple way to develop software.

$ git push -u origin master
Here all done, now you can check your GitHub repository to whether that file was added or not. Let's see the repo that we created.
It shows that we have successfully pushed our code to GitHub.
