00:00Computer Science videos here today to show you guys in this tutorial how to

00:05use version control to access the previous work on a Mac computer. Without

00:11further ado let us start the video. So in this tutorial you need to have access to

00:16a Mac computer, any work that you have been working on. For the purpose of this

00:22tutorial we will be analyzing a PowerPoint presentation we have been

00:27working on as you can tell in the previous tutorials. The ideology behind

00:33this was to demonstrate to the user, the client, the customer how to use

00:37PowerPoint. So before we start the tutorial I have the definition of

00:43version control and what it really is. Let's just click on this and analyze. So

00:50in software engineering version control is a class of systems responsible for

00:57managing changes to any programs, documents, large websites or other

01:02collections of information and we know that version control is a component of

01:06software configuration management. In other terms version control can also be

01:12known as time travel, going back in time to access information that may have

01:18been available let's say 40 years or maybe 400 years and so that's why

01:24GitHub version control are very important when it comes to seeing the

01:29changes that have taken place. So now we can go all the way down to the doc, go to

01:35finder, navigate to the OneDrive folder, go to work.pptx, click on this, minimize

01:41finder for the moment and now let's go to the top of the PowerPoint presentation

01:46where it says work, last modified two minutes ago, click on this, go to browse

01:52history, very important and now what I will do is go all the way to the start

01:59of the time where I created the presentation which is on the 4th of July

02:062022. Today's date is the 28th of July so we are talking 24 days ago. Let's just

02:14click on open version and now if I wish to restore the presentation from 24

02:21days ago to two slides, let's click on restore. What does this do? Okay it brings

02:28back everything that was done on those days or that day. Is there a way to now

02:34go back to what it initially looks like after all the changes have been made? Yes

02:40there is. So if you're wondering you went all the way back, are we able to go back

02:46to what it is now? Yes we are. Let's go back to browse version history and we

02:55can go to open version, yeah and restore. So now we have brought back all the work

03:09that the presentation is on. So we can now quit PowerPoint and so that's it for

03:16this video. I'll see you guys on a tutorial. Thanks for now. Thank you for

03:22making it towards the end of the video. Be sure to subscribe to my channel
