The tech you use to get code to production is so broad, asking these kinds of questions is at best a random chance of successfully hiring a good engineer. You may as well flip a coin.

A better approach is to ask a candidate something specific about their experience. Even if someone mentions “git expert” on their resume, the question is not what you proposed but instead asking about their experience and digging in from where they go. An engineer you’re interviewing may have fixed a bug in “git push” but not know anything about how “pull” or “rebase” works.
