Git is one of the primary version control technologies used in industry and it's good to get familiar with it, especially if you are going into a software engineering job. It allows you to see who changed what, have multiple people editing the same files at once, and rollback any major changes that create issues.
Also, on a completely separate but relevant note:
You may not want to use what I'm about to say if you've never used git before, but Atlasssian will provide Jira (a bug tracker) to FRC teams for free. It integrates with Github so you can link commits to specific bug. Just thought I would let some other people know if they didn't already. We use Jira constantly for managing our bugs and what everyone on our programming team is doing. I also use Jira at work and I have nothing but good things to say about it (other than a few more complicated features being ... well ... to complicated).
