With the help of git, developers have GAINED many advantages in terms of performing the development process faster and in a more efficient manner. Some of the main features of git which has made it easier to work are:

• Branching Capabilities:
  
  - Due to its sophisticated branching capabilities, developers can easily work on multiple branches for the different features of the project.
  - It also has an easier merge option along with an efficient work-flow feature diagram for tracking it.
   
• DISTRIBUTED manner of development:
  
  - Git is a distributed system and due to this nature, it became easier to trace and locate data if it's lost from the main server.
  - In this system, the developer gets a repository file that is PRESENT on the server. Along with this file, a copy of this is also stored in the developer’s system which is called a local repository.
  - Due to this, the scalability of the project gets drastically improved.
   
• Pull requests feature:
  
  - This feature HELPS in easier interaction AMONGST the developers of a team to coordinate merge-operations.
  - It keeps a proper track of the changes done by developers to the code.
   
• Effective release cycle:
  
  - Due to the presence of a wide variety of features, git helps to increase the speed of the release cycle and helps to improve the project workflow in an efficient manner.
