So for both use cases (Gitlab & Github) their web IDEs are leveraging Git (from the web GUI). So the cool aspect of all of this is that I could clone the repo locally and maybe even re-purpose for a Hugo site. But the core benefit of version control is there.

Oh yeah, I know. Let me rephrase - do you actually leverage the functionality that git (through Github/Gitlab) provides you in your note-taking? Do you go back in the history to see what you committed - do you bisect or look at meta, or commit in atomic ways so that things are more "organized" from a timeline perspective?

Yes! One nice aspect of version controlled notes: change management "trail". Meaning that I don't have to note what specific changes occurred to a requirement in a project but can just change the requirement. If I need to research why something took longer than expected one of the first ways to research that is via file history from git or from Gitlab / Github's History user experiences.
