How do you store a document with LibreOffice or similar software while
writing it, when using git?

IMO the only approach is to save the document every time something
important was edited, most of the times by overwriting the already saved
document and sometimes by another name text_in_progress_00,
text_in_progress_01 ... text_in_progress_n.

Btw. audio workstations such as Ardour provide an option to take
snapshots, apart from just saving a project, we could consider it a git
alike approach. An office program perhaps should have such an option,
too. Anyway, even when using Ardour or other audio workstations I
usually store my work by the in_progress_00, in_progress_01 ...
in_progress_n approach. Not automatically, but always if some "hard"
work was done, this could happen one time in two days or ten times in 5
minutes.
