Why do we keep trying to make git "smart"er than it needs to be? Whenever I hear someone complain about git it's 9/10 times because of ignorance, and it's a simple mistake to solve. No amount of tooling or smartening (as this author seemed to be described) is a valid alternative to training and understanding. The consequences of that is that a smarter tool used by dumb people means those people are held back, and made unproductive by the tool in question.
