  This is a big part of my problem with git. The existence of a feature is not the same as a solution to the problem. All of these little tools that exist in the git toolspace are not automatic. Every developer has to add it to their already pretty long set of git rituals. That's bullshit. We can do better than this. Point me to a git feature that works when I do 'git push' or 'git pull' otherwise I'm not interested. I'm also not interested in hearing people imply that people aren't smart enough if the tool doesn't suffice, and there's a very, very large concentration of that sort of asshole in the Git community. I don't make my tool decisions based on what I am smart enough or not smart enough to get. I make them based on what I'm willing to teach, my anticipation of how often I will have to be preempted to support others who don't get it, and what I'm willing to juggle when a production issue has the entire management team hand-wringing on a day when I'm already having a bad day. Give me stupid-simple and dead reliable or it's not helpful.
