Git is versioning control software that lets developers save a version of their code or share code and collaborate with others. A sort of time travel to go back and recover previous work. Git allows devs to recover saved work and return to coding.

Agree with @matin_mollapur and @komsenapati about the great explainer and humorous and accurate header image... just need to add:

The villain in your hero story of software development is your past self!
Search your git blame. You know it to be true.
