    I would like to contribute to open source but I’m not confident enough or understand git properly. As solo dev I only have to fulfill my boss’s standards, they seam to be low.

      Yeh, for me git is a backup system.
      My boss gave me a hand on some bits (more, I set up a framework and he could tweak pages). Anyway, I fixed some stuff, tidied some of his shit, then trying to get git to merge that back into his workspace REALLY stretched my knowledge of git LUL.
      I’m sure doing that every day would get me up to speed, but ATM commit/push means “backup” to me
