There's a generic version control framework in emacs called "VC" which
also supports git, read about it in the info pages

  (info "(emacs) Version Control")

(Copy this text into emacs, put the cursor past the last parenthesis
 and press C-x C-e.)

VC is centered around work with single files. If you need a broader
view, there are several tools to choose from. "git.el" might already
be installed for you, you can call it with M-x git-status. You get an
overview of the available commands with C-h C-m. 

HTH,
