Am i missing something, or is this nothing to do with Git? You could do this with any source control tool, or indeed with simple copies of the files. I've used exactly this approach without Git for years.

Of course it's something to do with git, it describes a workflow in git. Yes, you can do this with other VC tools or even without, but this is how you do it with git and, I'd argue, it's better than other ways, certainly more convenient than without a version control tool at all, IMHO.
