Using food as the analogy:
Food.........Code
Kitchen.....Dev Environment (IDE, PC, etc)
Serving.....Deploying
ok good so far
When I'm done with code I'm not going to deploy yet I commit and store it on a branch in git.
When I'm done making food that I'm not going to serve yet, I store it in a fridge or pantry.
When I need external code, I grab it from GitHub. When I need ingredients, I grab them from the grocery store.
So I think Food Storage, is the closest analog to git. I have local storage (pantry, fridge) that I can use to store food I have acquired.
Which would mean the grocery store is the closest analogy, but not a restaurant. Or maybe a grocery store with a restaurant.
