Imagine a young explorer who’s just heard that word, “git”. But it actually means an entire world. How is this young explorer supposed to dive into this mysterious world with just a machine in hand ?

He’s got vs code though !! And he’s also got fish and zsh on WSL !

    You can always version control regular-ass documents, art files, whatever, too! You might not be able to diff them very well, but you can absolutely use git as a bunch of save states.

    git is entirely local-only. You don’t need to upload anything to github at all.

        Same as you would anything else!

        git init (if you’re making a new repository)
        git add somefile.kra
        git commit (and then write your commit message)

          But l need to download git into my system locally for my machine to understand the command, correct ?

          In that case, how do I install git ?

            Oh yep! If you’re on Linux, sudo apt install git should sort you out if you’re on a Debian-ish distro (including Mint or Ubuntu). Fedora it’s sudo dnf install git, Arch… uhh… I don’t know a ton about Arch’s pacman.
