Version control systems provide tools for tracking changes in source code and files, enabling collaboration among developers and maintaining a history of modifications.

For self-hosted solutions, We often recommend Gitea or Gogs as lightweight alternatives to mainstream platforms. Gitea and Gogs are listed here: Version Control (in Category Web Apps).
