This video shows how zeffiro_downloader.m allows setting up a local repository that is automatically updated with the remote origin and how pushing new contents can be done via a pusher tool. The downloader can be obtained on Matlab's command line via: urlwrite('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sampsapursiainen/zeffiro_interface/master/zeffiro_downloader.m','zeffiro_downloader.m');

I would personally not recommend using the pusher tool. In its current state it is not robust enough to handle merge conflicts and such, and seems to be using the -A flag in the git add ... phase (as seen here), which is generally considered evil by experienced Git users.

Git should only be used as a separate program, either from the command line or via a mature graphical Git client, such as the ones listed here: https://git-scm.com/downloads/guis.

There is a draft of the recommended Git practises for the project in the file https://github.com/sampsapursiainen/zeffiro_interface/blob/main_development_branch/CONTRIBUTING.md.
