I agree that Git is hard, but with the right explanation and a good graphical GUI like SourceTree, I've gotten non-technical team members up to speed on it!
I think the hard part is explaining the distributed nature of the tool, where your branches are completely separate from the branches on the server. When I'm explaining it, I usually talk about branches as work streams, and merging branches means merging work together.
What kind of things tend to trip people up when explaining Git? Maybe I should write a blog post or something...
