When you do it for work, you log what you have changed each time you make a change to try to fix it, and you log what you revert, so you can keep track of what worked and what didn’t and have a clearer idea of what the solution was.

I made a self-hosted forgejo repository of /etc. Commit messages aren’t always informative, and I’ve never actually gone back to the repository to figure something out, but it’s there, just in case. Me cosplaying a sysadmin.

Yeah, same here ! Can’t believe how useful it is to have a git repo to keep track of changes, even as a non coder/sysadmin.
Simple pull/push commands and I’m now able to keep track of my bash scripts and specific .dot/config files.
To bad there isn’t a way to keep side notes a la Obsidian. Comments in the code are okay, but sometimes I wan’t to breakup the whole command with some notes to get a better understanding !
