Git isn't quite a blockchain, since it's a DAG and doesn't have a distributed consensus algorithm built in, while a "true" blockchain would be a Merkle tree with a built-in consensus algorithm. But it's very close, and by skipping the "coin" part of a cryptocurrency it manages to be far more useful.
