I don't pound my fist on my desk like I need more pictures of Spiderman, the nature of the product domain we're working in is demanding. This is not a defense

I don't pound my fist on my desk like I need more pictures of Spiderman, the nature of the product domain we're working in is demanding.
This is not a defense of the status quo. It's an observation about working within the status quo. If I could choose for everything else to remain equal but git get easier, of course I'd take it. I'd choose for a lot of things to be better, not just software.
My observation is that of all the things a developer might encounter for the first time on our project and be asked to learn, git isn't a standout. This is what I meant by keeping up; there's a lot to learn.
We do what we can to reduce the load, spread it out, and I refine the crash course for new developers every time someone goes through it. But at the end of the day, we have jobs because we can pick this stuff up and get to work with it. Even if git is less than the platonic ideal of version control.
