sorry, but I disagree that it's easier to mess up in git. case in point, the rm command. in git the rm command will not destroy the existence of any actual data, in subversion it will. so an "accidental" rm in git looses you nothing but time in reverting correctly, in subversion you loose data, which is irrecoverable. similar things can be said for almost any git command. and those that could loose data require a force flag, almost every time.
