so yeah, in a bit more detail, Git is a system which basically lets you create savestates for your work, so you can 1. keep track of what you've done and when (if you use commit comments properly) and 2. revert your work to a known good state if you fuck something up
you can even branch your code if you want to try something experimental without fucking up your main development branch, and then if things work out, you can merge the changes back into your main branch
@MySpaceEmoCat @SteelWool i hate "GitHub is Twitter for code" so much and yet i cannot argue with it
should point out, you don't HAVE to use GitHub to use Git; you can absolutely make a local repository and never push it anywhere
