The value of git is the tooling around pushing code to a central place. Version control is a relatively minor (albeit occasionally very helpful) part of the value of git. I’d argue that central storage (somewhat ironically), open source support, CI automations (esp. web hooks), issue management, etc offer far more value. In other words, GitHub (and friends) are the value worth spending time in, rather than being in the weeds of using Git “perfectly”.
