1. Scope and Objectives of the Course

This course helps learners to become functional in open-source ecosystem. The course focus on enabling
learners to examine the functionality of Software Version Control Systems. Version control systems are used to
maintain various versions of same source code for maintainability and agility. The learners shall utilize the
functionality of GIT to support version control of source code. The users of Software version control system are
able to assess workflows in various version control systems like Git. The learners can apply the workflows to
create collaboration with Co Participants on a software project.
After the completion of course student will be able to:
 Become familiar with environment of version control system.
 Utilize the functionalities of version control system to track running history for maintainability and agility
of source code.
 Work in Collaborative teams to work through open-source ecosystem.

2. Course Learning Outcomes
