Ted Nyman – High Performance Git
Good question! Idk and I don't make the rules. I guess people default to it because most people have git installed already?
I'm thinking of LazyVim for example which has [1]:

Microsoft makes Zork open-source
Everyone's recommending books; I'm going to do the opposite and recommend a specific dialect.
Install Clojure. Read https://clojure.org/guides/getting_started and choose an editor. If you don't have a favorite editor, I recommend NeoVim with the LazyVim package (clone https://github.com/LazyVim/starter and follow instructions), then run the :LazyExtras command and install the Clojure package. If you haven't used LazyVim before, https://lazyvim-ambitious-devs.phillips.codes/ is a good book; you can read it online for free, then if you find it useful, purchase a copy to reward the author for his hard work.
Once you've installed an editor, you'll want to install https://leiningen.org/ which is the de facto (if not de jure) package manager for Clojure. Makes compiling your Clojure code to an .exe (for distribution to other machines where Clojure isn't installed) about as simple as it can be.
Once you've got an editor and a package manager installed, you're ready to read https://clojure.org/guides/learn/clojure as well as the various books on Lisp others are recommending. Depending on which book it is, the functions may have different names (e.g., some languages use `first` and `rest` while others stick with the historical `car` and `cdr` names, but they're the same functions), but you should find that the concepts translate perfectly well from one dialect of Lisp to another and the only challenge is having to look up what name the function has in the dialect you're using.

Switching Fully to Neovim
My configuration was inspired by several great sources, including lazyvim starter, ThePrimeagen’s dotfiles, kickstart.nvim, and Typecraft’s Rails config. These provided a strong foundation that I’ve adapted to fit my workflow.
