Version control is essential for medium to large projects to track changes, organize code, and revert to previous versions using systems like Git or SVN. Despite MetaEditor supporting SVN-based MQL Storage, Git is preferred due to its robust branching and merging features. MetaQuotes plans to integrate Git with MetaEditor and launch MQL5 Algo Forge, an in-house Git alternative.

To transition, create a new Git repository, clone it locally, and configure with .gitignore for efficient file management. Utilize tools like VSCode and Git for repository management. Store projects in separate branches or repositories depending on project dependencies. Transition involves creating a main repository, configuring branches, and managing changes smoothly.
