Knowing the git enough to not need crutches is opposite of luddite. But yeah, for devs sure, just read git book 2 or 3 times and if you're competent developer you'd probably get it just fine, once you get the concepts it's perfectly logical. Just that not everyone is a developer wanting to use git for dev things and those UIs have place for that. I kinda wish there was more on the graphics side, like you can tell git how to diff binary files or even encrypted files but good luck explaining that to the non-coder trying to use it. I still don't get developers complaining about it, it's your fucking main tool to work and about 10x easier than competence in any programming language, just learn it, you will use it longer than any piece of code you ever wrote most likely.
