Yeah that would be awesome but sadly they'd just be confused and annoyed by it all. I mean in my writing communities I'm the only one that uses Git, Linux, and MD. Everyone else just sticks with Google Docs, Word, or some more specialized writing apps.

I sometimes use Git branches to explore different story ideas but I mostly just use the system for basic versioning and history. I also use Git for written roleplays to store my logs and thoughts, and since MD is basically text I can use Unix tools like grep and wc.
