It seems so natural for programmer types to assume that everyone understands github and git. Unfortunately, I do not. I have some vague ideas on how git works, with versions and such, but no idea about all the lingo used (commit, clone, branch, etc.). It isn't explained in the Udemy tutorial, nor does the presenter point to some place to learn more.

Anyway, why would I need version control for a static website? I don't see the point. It's static, not changing. Or has static another meaning I'm not aware of? I should be able to upload the files to a directory on a server I rent, shouldn't I?
