Until recently, I’ve always used FTP to upload files to the server. And my attempt at version control included lots of dated folders. Then I got introduced to version control with Git.

Git has completely changed the way I work with WordPress. Now I have version control on every project I start. Using Git also makes deployment much simpler and cleaner, using applications to push changes to the live site instead of through FTP.

I will explain why version control is important, how to get started with Git, my workflow with Git and WordPress, and deployment techniques.
