I wind up with all this needless CI activity on push, publish a whole PR for others to see, and generally waste everyone's time. Git's workflow really is based on this whole corpus of shared VCS experience, and it shows. The downside to all that is that Git is _everyone's_ workflow, and nobody's at the same time. It's a compromise, and the tool does expose everyone to all the small little steps that are a part of that bigger experience. That said, if there was a more succinct workflow that was smart enough to flag simple mistakes for me, I would welcome it.
