How to use git instead of FTP?

FTP is cool and all, but I am learning git. How do I use gitbash to push everything to the sever so I can have version control.

Your host has to support pushing via git. Not all do. Who is your host?

Digitalocean serves as my host as I am creating the server with them. I am still dabbling with it so sorry if this is more advanced stuff I am not suppose to know.

Digitalocean should support that - however I haven't used them before. I know you're own your own to set up your own dropplet, which is how they keep their prices so low. They have a ton of help articles, have you found one that walks you through it?
