Version control systems (VCS) are the source of truth for the code.

Change or commit history and code lineage features of VSC make it stand out in terms of its uses.

As part of the software development life cycle, every new feature, integration, bug fix, and improvement has to be merged into the code repo.

These code repos act as bridges between tools and services, enabling the desired functionality.

For example, CI/CD pipelines or automated scripts will clone the approved repos versions onto clusters for execution.

It is increasingly important for the developer or maintainer to ensure the code complies with certain checks before it is merged into the main/master branch.

Your level as a developer/programmer doesn’t matter when it comes to GitHub checks.

A miss is a miss; there is no way around it unless you fix it and recommit the highlighted issue.

I am assuming you know how to create GitHub actions. We will set up 5 necessary and effective checks on our repo. If not, please refer to the video below.
