Agreed. I'd read the manual if there was something I needed from it, but everything is working fine. Yeah I might've rsynced between some local folders once or twice when I could've used git, maybe that was an inelegant approach, but the marginal cost of that blunder was... about as much time I've spent in this thread so whatever.
The nice thing about knowing more about git is that it unlocks another dimension in editing code. It’s a very powerful version of undo-redo, aka time travelling. Then you start to think in term of changes and patches.
Ane example of that is the suckless philosophy where extra features comes as patches and diff.
