Merges are hard and I’ve never seen a system that removes the difficulty. I actually think git is the best because it’s easier to branch and update than many others (a pull takes a second to refresh vs quite a while for large repos with svn).
I was using ClearCase for a few years and they had a really nice visual merge tool, but the complexity of the merge was great because they were so infrequent. I made a mistake and let someone find out I could merge and ended up getting sucked into these quarterly multi-day merge sessions that made me feel like a guild navigator stressing about breaking one of thousands of changes from 50 people over 90 days.
