Git is not a blockchain. Most importantly, it's not distributed. There's a singular git server that all git clients for that repository connect to and use as a source of truth.
Counterpoint: it is a chain and there absolutely is not one server.
For each project there is one authoritative instance, one "server" that everyone pushes to. Otherwise you get chaos.
That's not a git thing though. You can totally have multiple remotes and the remotes are just git repositories themselves. Git is 100% decentralized. There is technically nothing stopping you from having multiple remotes.
