>So can I technically use git software and store my files on let's say google drive?
While that is probably technically possible it sounds retarded and like a waste of time. A remote repository isn't just a folder in the cloud where you dump files, it has to have software that git can talk to so that it can keep track of the history of every file, merge and resolve conflicts, and do all of its actual version control features.

If you don't want to sign up for a free remote repo service like github, bitbucket or gitlab, you can also set up a server and self-host remote repo software but that's still not the same as just dumping a folder into google drive. If you genuinely just want to zip your folder up and put it it somewhere in the cloud you can do that but it'll be cumbersome and you have to deal with syncing and conflicts yourself
