Git Working area 

Git Working area

The Git working area consists of the following parts:

Working Directory: The actual location on your file system where you can find your files and directories. 

Staging Area: A temporary area where changes are prepared for committing. The changes in the working directory can be added to the staging area using the “git add” command.

Local Repository: A local database of all the changes made to the project files. When you run the “git commit” command, the changes in the staging area are saved to the local repository, creating a new revision.

Remote Repository: A remote database of all the changes made to the project files, which is stored on a server. The remote repository can be updated with new changes made in the local repository using the “git push” command.

When you make changes to files in the working directory, they are not yet part of the Git repository. You must use the “git add” command to move changes from the working directory to the staging area. The “git commit” command then saves changes from the staging area to the local repository. Finally, the “git push” command is used to update the remote repository with changes from the local repository.
