"Git" can't be used; that the actual thing being worked on at GitHub.
For naming the InLeo version of this developer platform, maybe a poll is needed with 3 options plus an option for "Other" whicch can be mentioned in replies.
Sure, in case some Lions would work on making it - "making git" 😉 - a reality, it'd be worth it to set up a proper poll about the name choice.
Regarding the term "Git", what are the reasons why it couldn't be used? I've checked on Wikipedia (I use it once a year, lol): "Git is free and open-source software shared under the GPL-2.0-only license.
Git was originally created by Linus Torvalds (...). The trademark "Git" is registered by the Software Freedom Conservancy, marking its official recognition and continued evolution in the open-source community".
If the core of the code versions ledger we build on INLEO actually uses the Git software, I guess we'd have to ask the SFC the authorization to refer to "Git" in the name, but it seems to be relatively easy to get (apart from "GitHub", there already is "GitLab", "Gitea", "GitBreeze", "Git Cola", etc.). It has almost become a generic word, in the open source universe, as far as I've seen.

Thanks for your comment, @magnacarta!
