Git is just a horrible user interface, period. Linus named it "git" because it's clearly kind of stupid. But it works for many people. Other version control systems are much better for beginners (especially centralized ones). But mainly they are easier because they're designed to be user friendly.
But nobody's going to solve the major problems of Git any time soon, because you can eventually get Git to work. This is a persistent problem I see all over the tech landscape. We live with crappy solutions because trying to make a better one is way more work than just dealing with the bad one. Progress isn't impossible, it's just tedious.
