I don't find git "deeply flawed"; on the contrary, it's an extremely useful tool with an easy to grasp data model. Some parts of it are quirky, sure, but I find it very easy to use productively in code bases small and large, private or shared. It's such a huge improvement over what was used before, it can be a little weird for me to hear people complain so hard about git. But hey, some fresher perspective than mine surely exist. Anyway, instead of thinking of git as deeply flawed, try to see it as a battle tested tool without which your job would suck in ways you can't even imagine. You're standing on the shoulders of a giant, easily wielding its power, and it sounds like the wart you found on its chin is a huge catastrophe somehow. Find a way to appreciate the giant until a worthy successor inevitably emerges, and maybe things will seem a little less depressing. :)
