Do I really need version control?
My question is simple enough. When I am in Xcode and right click a file and go down to “Source Control>Commit Selected File…”, it brings up a new screen.
My question is this:
What is committing files for? I’m simply trying to understand the pros and cons.
Thanks!
Jake
EDIT: Now I understand, thanks for the responses!
Sometimes, it is possible to draw yourself into a corner: You have a great idea, you change many things, and you notice your idea wasn’t as good as you thought. If you had source control, you could just go back to the last working version easily, cleanly, reliably and quickly.
