[support] Git and multisite: mutually exclusive?

in regard to: *sorry, I didn't specify the multisite use. So, 4 domains
sharing one codebase. Each of those domains will be pulling files that
should only have the core files and their site files, but not the other
site files.*

If you have virtual hosts going on, you can point all of your domains to
you main source folder. It's a mix of that and .htaccess mod-rewrite but
the first step is making sure your hosting situation is right. For myself I
have a handful of sites, different tld's all sharing one source. But DNS is
a whole other issue. You need to make sure that is all correct too. Bottom
line, set up virtual hosts and look up the Drupal documentation which walks
you through exactly what you are asking.
