Branch in Git

What is a branch in Git?

In Git, a branch is like a separate workspace where you can make changes and try new ideas without affecting the main project. Think of it as a "parallel universe" for your code.

Why use branches?

1. Branches let you work on different parts of a project, like new features or bug fixes, without interfering with the main branch.
2. It allows to have experiments in isolation without interfering with the main codebase. Each branch represents a separate line of development, enabling parallel work on different features simultaneously.
3. A well-defined branching strategy helps maintain code quality.
