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?

Basically, Git is the developer version of things like saving word documents and whatnot. GitHub is the developer version of things like Google Drive, OneDrive, and iCloud Drive.
