Dropbox is (or at least was) more reliably about making sure the files are
present than iCloud was, however, iCloud seems to work fine as far as I can
tell in my testing. I don't use that myself as I do most of my Bbedit on my
main machine and very rarely on others.

I can't think of a reason that git would not work, but it is a bit out of the
realm of the BBEdit manual, so not mentioned. The worst that could happen is
the you try it and it doesn't work for some reason. You would not want to git
sync when Bbedit is open on any machine, probably, which would be an issue for
me, for example, as BBEdit is always open.
