So I'm now using git from the console (at the moment I'm logged in windows, so let it be the windows console). My question is - because I couldn't find this on the guide - say I'm logged in from another machine and I want to checkout my project, keep working on it and then commit the changes, is it possible? In other words, how do I access my existing repository from another machine?

Git is designed for teams to work on the same codebase, so it's designed to be checked out from multiple places. In cases where the code is modified from multiple sources, you can merge when doing a commit.
