  <p>What is a/an...</p>
  
  <p>"Workspace"</p>
  
  <p>"Index"</p>
  
  <p>"Local Repository"</p>
  
  <p>"Remote Repository"</p>
  
  <p>...in relation to my computer and the GitHub Servers? Is the workspace my computer? Is the Local Repository my computer? Do I setup the Remote Repository on my personal server somewhere? I can memorize these words and the commands that move data from one to the other, but they mean nothing to me.</p>
