I've been doing a lot of searching about this module and it appears its primary use, along with git, is for developing modules. Does it have any other uses besides module development for regular maintenance of a Drupal site?

It's pretty much exactly what it says it is-- an interface for drupal sites to version control systems (of which git is only one).

Thanks, that makes sense. Let me ask another way. Is git, being one of the version control systems, primarily used for version control in module development, module updating and drupal core updating?

It is the version control system used by drupal.org, but there are definitely other sites and shops that use some of the others (like subversion and bazaar (which I don't think has a versioncontrol plugin yet).

I use GIT for all my version control, in developing sites, modules and themes. The time spent learning how git works will pay itself back very quickly as you start using it.

Contact me to contract me for D7 -> D10/11 migrations.
