Putting a MySQL installing system to git

Question

I have never used git but now I need to use it as I'm trying to install Drupal. I installed MySQL, created user and gave permissions to user. Now, how can I put that database to git? I just want to take a backup of my database in the case of something goes wrong.

Answer 1

Hmm i think in this case git is not the right. When you want a backup you can use a master - slave replication.

With git your data is save when you make a git add and commit and push. In this case you have to do this process everytime.
