> Or maybe git just is a very powerful tool and takes more than half a year of half-assed use to learn. And also distributed version control is complicated. Git isn't as intuitive on the happy paths as perhaps it could have been and shows its slightly rushed initial development, but no tool that allows such flexibility can ever be truly simple. And in its defense, it wasn't originally designed to be a super-simple glossy tool. The technical advantages of it simply outweighed the slightly clunky interface, and that interface has improved since then. I do recommend to use the "git lola" alias to give an easy gestalt of the repo state if you're ever unsure what's going on.
