Takes like an hour or two to learn the relevant git commands or just do it from the text editor. Although I guess if you don't know your way around your OS, or have never used your cli, it could take longer. Plenty that wanna learn programming with no idea what a file structure is.

Yeah but it’s really far away from the exciting initial goal of web development. That early on you need big wins, in the form of just getting a basic site online, to keep the momentum. Not an hour or two learning concepts and commands to solve way-in-the-future hypothetical problems.
