Is it best practice to do this from your text editor? Can't we do all this directly from the github site?

18,726 PointsYou can do this directly from the GitHub website, but in production you will most likely need to use a text editor (and most have features and tools which aren't available through GitHub's online text editor), so it would be best practice to use your own text editor.
There are also gui's for using Git, but the command line is sometimes the only way you may be able to interface with Git in many situations.
