> The sad thing is that git requiere so much arcane usage that hg have spared me for so much time. Like what? I've been using git for 5 years and I hardly ever stray from the set {push, pull, reset, checkout, rebase}. I use VSCode for staging, committing, diffing, etc. though, so that probably spares me some commands, but I rarely (if ever?) have had to do what I would consider an "arcane" command. > Even MORE bizarre is why not improve the tools coping what is good from others AND cleaning the usage of them? Git has improved over time. Why, in the latest release they improved UX for the "checkout" command. Before it could mean "switch branch" or "restore file" but now there are 2 explicit commands: "git switch" (for switching branches) and "git restore" (for restoring files).
