Github - what is the difference between a repository and a project?
Hi :)
I'm starting my adventure with programming and set up an account on github, but I'm not sure what is the difference between a repository and a project. Is there a separate repository for each project? Or should I create one repository and several different projects in it?
Thanks for your help: D
One project = one repository
The best is to imagine that each repository is a separate folder where you keep files for one specific project.
In simple way, we can say:
Project (in computer) - set of organized informations as files that describe some work with easy access to them (e.g. Web Site, Computer Program).
Repository - is place where files / projects that are stored to keep history of changes and protect them (they can be archived to reduce size).
