Nice to read this. I was trying to collaborate on a single project that used Mercurial, and man as a git user I could not understand the branching model.. had the hardest time. I ended up working from a local git repo, doing my work there, and then very carefully pushing the commits one at a time at the very end. If I made a mistake, I basically re-cloned the Hg repo because apparently editing history is a no-no. I found the experience very frustrating. Sibling comment to mine: > Git branching is not intuitive, because they are not branches but pointers/labels. Funny, that's exactly why I DO find git branches more intuitive.
