GitHub is self-explanatory. I suggest working through some examples in the manual on git itself:
Git User?s Manual (for version 1.5.3 or newer)
You will likely benefit from working locally on a repository, just to try things out. Hence you need to install git first. Even working through half of the tutorial above should give you a good grasp of how to use git. At that point you will likely not need a reference manual. There is only a handful of commands that you will ever use.

git-import-dscs
GIT-IMPORT-DSCS(1) git-buildpackage Manual GIT-IMPORT-DSCS(1)
NAME
git-import-dscs - Import multiple versions of a Debian source packages into a Git repository
SYNOPSIS
git-import-dscs [ options ] [ git-import-dsc options ] pkg_1.dsc pkg_2.dsc ...
or
git-import-dscs --debsnap [ options ] [ git-import-dsc options ] package
DESCRIPTION
git-import-dscs imports several versions of a Debian source package into a Git repository. To do so it sorts the packages by their versions
first and then imports them via calling git-import-dsc on each package.
If the current directory isn't a Git repository already the repository is created in a subdir of the current working directory, named after
the first imported package, otherwise the Git repository in the current working directory is being used. This allows for incremental
imports.
OPTIONS
--debsnap
Fetch snapshots from snapshots.debian.org using debsnap.
--ignore-repo-config
Ignore gbp.conf files stored in the git repository itself. This can be useful to ignore branch informations and other options
shipped in the package source.
All other options are passed on verbatim to git-import-dsc.
