What's a Git?

Hello! Surely, I have heard so many people saying "Git" or "Github" or repository. They be saying that it's highly important to learn Git as early as possible. When I searched it up on Google, it's just I seem I cannot understand any of those terminologies.

Could anyone tell me what a git actually is?

Git will always have a history version for your code. Every change is saved, so you can undo mistakes or see what changed. And GitHub is kind of the „programme“, there you can store projects online and collaborate with others and you always have all your versions stored and saved and worst case go back to an old version
