Adding Git commands as an additional fifth "language"

This is awesome! Sorry I didn't see it sooner. This PR is simliar to #82 (add ansible commands) in that we don't have room on screen to fit all the languages. The existing 4 langs (js, html, bash, python) take up all the screen real estate during the "bonus command" screen.

Eventually I think we should change the game design to one where you choose the language you want. That would allow us to have as many langs as we want.

I do see that it scrolls off the screen a little bit. I wonder if we could just adjust the font slightly to handle the Git and Ansible cases without having to do a redesign?

Changing the font size is opening a can of worms. Line breaks in the game text are manually added; there's no wrapping functionality. That means changing the text size requires manually reformatting every text string in the game. That's a big undertaking and it's really easy to miss things.

So, it's not impossible, but it is a lot of work.

Fair enough. That makes sense.
