The git questions are really simple, almost at the level of "how do I hello world in X?"
I think this is more indicative of the level of git adoption than any complexity - and don't get me wrong, git is complex and messy.
I also think git gets a lot of these questions because developers want it to just work, and it doesn't. People who normally happily spend days figuring out a framework but are resistant to understanding the git mental model. Compared to other version control, the 'basics' are an order of magnitude more complex, and without an understanding of the internals, you will have a bad time.
