Smile Use Git on Kindle PW

Hey Dear mobileread-members!
This is my first Forum Post so please don't judge me!

I have a kindle Paperwhite 4, 10th gen. with a Jailbreak.
I have installed Kual with Usbnet, kterm extension and Alpine Linux.

I wish to use the Git command in the kterm Terminal-window, but I don't know how to install git on the device itself. Alpine Linux has the ability to use git commands on the device but only running the OS. From the OS I can't access the /mnt/us/ folder from the device. My main goal is to sync the My-Clippings.txt file to Git.

So there are two options for me.
1. installing git on kindle OS
2. use git from the Alpine Terminal Window and cp the clippings file from the /mnt/us/ folder to the alpine image.

Thanks for reading the post. It would be very kind, if you help me.
