Which task needs GitHub, not just Git?

Question

Accepted Answer

Opening a pull request, which is a GitHub feature layered on the Git repo — Pull requests, issues, Actions and branch protection are GitHub features built on top of a hosted Git repository — Git itself has no concept of them. Branching, committing, merging, conflict resolution and tagging are all plain Git and work with no account and no network at all.

Answer

Creating a branch and committing to it without any network connection

Answer

Merging one branch into another and resolving the conflicts it raises

Answer

Tagging a release commit and then listing every tag in the repository
