The main complexities of git really come when you start having to work with other people also editing the same files you are. If you're just doing a solo project, you'll likely be mostly on a single branch, maybe a handful of others if you're experimenting a lot. In that case, you largely just need to know add, commit, push, checkout, and can largely ignore the complexities of merging and rebasing.
