I'm saying that perhaps his level of understanding is not to blame. Most responses to complaints about git are "you just don't understand." It is tiring.

- alinajaf 16y agoIt may be tiring, but it's still true. "[svn|rails|regex|whatever] is bad because I don't get it" is not an argument, just an expression of laziness/lack of interest.
- jshen 16y agoI went into barnes and noble one day and picked up the Pro Git book and sat in the cafe and read it for a few hours. After that I understood git fairly well and the things the OP said show that he hasn't put forth this minimal amount of effort. I don't think a few hours of study for a power tool is too much to ask, and I think it's reasonable to dismiss the arguments of someone who clearly hasn't put forth a sincere effort to understand it. Also, the book is available for free online http://progit.org/book/ http://progit.org/book/
