Git and the Story of Your Changes

Understand saved files, recorded checkpoints and useful change notes through visual examples. Review an agent’s edits before preserving a milestone, without typing Git commands.

These examples are fictional. This page works from disk with its own CSS and JavaScript. It does not run an agent, install tools, initialize Git, connect accounts or send messages.
