We can formatise our issue tracker and users comment with the help of Markdown.

We would not be run out of content when we use Github.its got content helping us to learn about generating SSH key.

We can converts one or several files into a working Git repository with help of Gist and we can host simple static website by assigning HTML pages onto another Git repository and use and test that.

If our resource are at different locations than through online Git repository would not be set new environment for new resources. So we can say its collaberative nature as well another benifit.

there is online repository which should not consider as infallible because on Git all code changes history will be avaliable and always have multisolution backup too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
