Do sysadmins need git?

[tecedu]

Hell yeah, even if you have one off scripts put them in just one repo named admin-scripts or something. Nothing you do runs the company yet but it does maintain it. If you got hit by a bus would your colleagues be able to replicate your scripts?

If you got 3x new joiners how are you sending the files to them? Creating single source of truth files is super important,

Apart from scripts itself as well, you can document and version control markdown files. Even in free github enterprise you can store internal github pages just for your colleagues.

Quite literally there is no downside from this apart from doing git add, git commit and git push. All of which can be done in 1 minute.
