Centralized code access with strong version control and remote availability
Pros and Cons
- "The best feature is that we can access it from anywhere if we have GitHub credentials."
- "There is nothing that could be improved at this time."
What is our primary use case?
I use Git to store our code and maintain different versions, and for some projects, we use CI/CD as part of GitHub.

What needs improvement?
There is nothing that could be improved at this time.

I have been using Git for almost three years now.
