James,

   I have a github project that has some images that I can use as an example.

Here I have an image in a github project.

https://github.com/rscheitlin/eSearch/blob/master/assets/images/i_buffer.png

and when I click the raw button I get the url that I would need to use in a web site:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rscheitlin/eSearch/master/assets/images/i_buffer.png

James,

   You can do as Steven recommends and use Github for Desktop or you can just use the Git commandline as I do. Here is a link that is just the basics of Git git - the simple guide - no deep stuff!

Here are the links for the Windows ​and Mac GitHub clients that others have mentioned.  Looks like there is a new unified GitHub Desktop coming out in the future.

Using Github for Desktop, you can sync repositories.  That's how I do it.  It basically takes the online project and moves it to your desktop.  Then you can create folders and store images in them.  Then sync them back with github.
