A data engineer needs to determine whether to use the built-in Databricks Notebooks versioning or...

Databricks Repos is a visual Git client and API in Databricks that supports common Git operations such as cloning, committing, pushing, pulling, and branch management. Databricks Notebooks versioning is a legacy feature that allows users to link notebooks to GitHub repositories and perform basic Git operations. However, Databricks Notebooks versioning does not support the use of multiple branches for development work, which is an advantage of using Databricks Repos. With Databricks Repos, users can create and manage branches for different features, experiments, or bug fixes, and merge, rebase, or resolve conflicts between them. Databricks recommends using a separate branch for each notebook and following data science and engineering code development best practices using Git for version control, collaboration, and CI/CD. References: Git integration with Databricks Repos - Azure Databricks | Microsoft Learn, Git version control for notebooks (legacy) | Databricks on AWS, Databricks Repos Is Now Generally Available - New ‘Files’ Feature in …, Databricks Repos - What it is and how we can use it | Adatis.
