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 !

Probably that's the property of git that l stumbled upon ?

But how do l save art files locally in the form of git ?

    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.
