no, its not a good UI.
admittedly "expert" UIs are different from "noob" UIs, but the number of "git magic spell" followers out there mean that it isn't a good UI for the majority of people who use git.
- dozzie 10y agoWell, if you treat git as Torvalds intended it in the beginning (framework for building VCS-es) and accordingly limit the discussion to git's plumbing command set, you get a sensibly good UI+architecture that is targeted at programmers that write VCS-es. Git being operable with a pry bar and repairable with a hammer is a good proof that in this context it's a good design.
