Git is already incredibly smart about merging things — what kind of improvements do you propose to make in this regard? In certain cases it simply isn't possible to automatically merge things, they require external knowledge.
In general, with the current tools provided by VSTS, Gitlab etc (Github is lagging behind a bit here), I don't think most developers on generic codebases have much trouble with versioning.
- ehu_fugaces 8y agoRegarding merging: hard to say. Possibly, if you have the ability to check for conflicts with each file touch across machines, you could in theory resolve/identify conflicts earlier. But that's a guess. The main premise was to remove the pain of git, and it's possible that, as you say, it's not a big enough pain point!
