It's hard not to get stuck at some point if you don't have some understanding of the internals.
If I was a beginner, I'll try to get some proficiency early on rather than having to learn the hard way when you're on the middle of a project. It's a good investment.
I've also found that learning crafting nice commits made me a better programmer. It seemed difficult at first but now it's second nature (and I assume that in most teams, one is expected to submit small and self-contained commits anyway).
- osigurdson 2y agoThat is my main point, I have never gotten stuck despite not deeply understanding the internals. Instead I built a solid mental model just from the behavior of the commands.
- anonzzzies 2y agoNever gotten stuck in the more than 15 years (cvs etc before it) of using it; never needed a gui and hardly needed to look up anything (but we can do what's the issue with that?); work(ed) on massive projects. It's just not that hard.
