    A few years ago, when I was in an Excel-heavy role we used Sharepoint, which was ok. It was a big improvement over "pro forma $user v4 final final.xslx", but it left a lot to be desired.

    I'm having a hard time understanding what you mean. Can you describe how you use git for excel?

    The issue we find is that if a user is using excel (a lot) there is a very slim chance that they know what git is and/or how to use it correctly.
