My personal opinion is that it is bet to learn the basics of git (about 3 hours), say from a book like [1]. Then use the approach to Sage development described in the badly-named section "Git the Hard Way" of [2]. Recently Volker modified the Sage dev guide (for the next release) to emphasize this approach, which I very strongly agree with. It might help you.
