-A micro environment with Git based on the SLE Base Container Image.
+
+## Description
+
+Git is a distributed version control system that tracks
+versions of files. It is often used to control source code by programmers who
+are developing software collaboratively.
+
+Design goals of Git include speed, data integrity, and support for
+distributed, non-linear workflows — thousands of parallel branches running on
+different computers.
+
+
+## Usage
+
+This container provides the SUSE LLC version of Git.
+
+Example of using Git container:
+
+```ShellSession
+$ podman run registry.suse.com/suse/git:2.43 git help
+```
+
+As Git requires a repository, the container
+does not explicitly set an entrypoint. This way, you can launch the container in
+interactive mode to clone a repository and work on it. To avoid losing all your changes when exiting the container, use a persistent volume mount on launch.
+
+For more use cases and documentation, refer to the
+[Git SCM documentation](https://git-scm.com/doc).
