Git has been a trendy word for a while, a bit like sticking "i" in front of your product name.

- thrwaway69 6y agoI don't understand why. People don't like master branch but they don't care about git which is literally a slang for an old senile idiot.
- quadrangle 6y agowhile true, it's also formally trademarked and GitHub and GitLab etc. have explicit permission to use the term. It's a trademark violation to use "Git" in reference to software products without the explicit permission of the Git project unless it's a mere reference in the direction of "Zinq is a tool that helps with Git etc" (it's not a trademark issue to mention interaction with Git, only to use it in the name as branding)
