How to use GitHub on an Unreal Engine 5.6 project for revision control

This video will teach you how to use GitHub to collaborate on your Unreal project using Anchorpoint. This process is called version control, source control or revision control. You will learn how to create a new repository on GitHub, push files, use file locking (similar to file checkouts) and undo commits.
All the operations can also be performed from an Unreal Engine plugin.

This video uses the free version of Anchorpoint, and the learning outcomes are applicable to all Git clients. Here, we use the term 'revision control', which is synonymous with 'source control' or 'version control'.
