1/ Since we go through the #Githubification of InfoSec, knowing git has become an essential skill

My recommendations:

Read a tutorial to get to know the basic terminology
rogerdudler.github.io/git-guide/

Do an interactive training but I'd consider it optional
katacoda.com/courses/git

2/
For newcomers or occasional users I'd recommend a GUI

- Github Desktop (Windows, Linux, macOS)
desktop.github.com
github.com/shiftkey/deskt…
- SourceTree (macOS, Windows)
sourcetreeapp.com
- GitKraken (Windows, Linux, macOS)
gitkraken.com

...

3/ What you'll need in practice is called "pull requests", often from your own forked version of another repository

docs.github.com/en/free-pro-te…

It goes like this:
1. Create a fork
2. Modify the fork, add files, change content
3. Create pull request for the original repository

4/ If you have a link to a great tutorial or learning aid, please share it with others by replying to this tweet.

Would you be interested in short videos that describe how to use a basic tool like the Github desktop client to cooperate with some of our repos like Sigma?

Side note:

When you like Git and run Linux servers, you'll probably love etckeeper, a tool that keeps track of every change in your /etc directories by handling them as git commits
