> With git, it's something you _directly_ interact with so I would expect you to understand it in great detail. Yes, you are describing what is broken about git: its abstractions are leaking too much so people who touch it have to know all its internals. I touch x86 assembler every time I run high-level code, it's just that other kind folks have gone to a lot of effort to make it so that I don't have know how the internals of that low-level stuff work. Abstractions allow people to be productive without knowing in great detail how absolutely everything in the universe works. A good tool has simple, non-leaky abstractions with a simple interface. Git is not a good tool.
