[[{“value”:”Version control for game dev is messier than for regular software. You’ve got binary assets that can’t be merged, artists who want file locking, and developers who want to move fast. Those two worlds don’t naturally get along.
Andy and Stacey dig into how version control actually works in game studios, walk through setting up git for a real Godot project in the terminal, and cover Git LFS, the piece that makes git viable when your repo is full of textures, audio, and 3D models.
🚀 What You’ll Learn
• How centralized (SVN/Perforce) and distributed (git) version control differ
• How Git LFS handles binary assets: pointer files, separate storage, and reduced local repo size.
• How file locking works in Git LFS and why it matters for game assets.
• Git fundamentals in the terminal: init, add, commit, push, pull, branching, and merge conflicts.
• Best practices for Unity and Godot projects: scene structure, .gitignore, commit hygiene, and keeping your main branch stable.
