Probably just the wording = scaring you a bit. Git is simply a protocol
for sharing code. Those = who are programming org-mode can work together
on all of the little = files that make org-mode work. These files live
on a server, and = those of use who use org-mode "pull" (or clone) from
that server. In = this way, you can keep your version up to date with
what the coders = are doing.

You don't have to have anything running. There's a = server that keeps
all of the org-mode program living on it. We, the = users, use "git" (a
small program) to interact with that server and = download a fresh copy.

Git is smart, though, and after the first = long download, every time
you run it afterwards, it only pulls down = files that have changed so
that it's much faster = afterwards.

Sound good?
