Definitely agree.

I didn't come across source control until after my studies - it was always a case of making copies of my project folders and naming them with a date for my courseworks!

Git is definitely very powerful, even if only used locally. I have a few articles on my blog that cover some of the common things that I've seen people trip up on.
