Not everyone here is a 'professional' software developer. Git does have a steep learning curve.
(I've used git extensively for years, just playing devil's advocate)
- SOLAR_FIELDS 8y agoTo reinforce your point - I have worked with people in the past, mostly older, that struggled a lot with Git when all they were trying to do was something simple like commit some static files generated from third-party software to my project. These people only needed the bare minimum (stage, commit, push) of Git yet found themselves baffled and fighting with the tool because of all the possibilities and things it could do that they didn’t really need.
- Piskvorrr 8y agoThere's a fair amount of tools capable of manipulating a Git repo, not all of which are `/usr/bin/git`. "Everybody must use this complex CLI power tool, therefore people struggle" is simply untrue here, in the premise.
