I'm hardly alone in thinking the git CLI is difficult to use. It is in fact one of the most frequently criticisms against git. I think the best evidence for that is that there is no shortage of blog posts about how easy it is to learn git, and here, these are all the easy things you should do in order to learn git. If it's so easy, why is Git Explained its own genre of blog post? I can only think of Monads/Haskell Explained as another blog post in a similar genre. It's not about how often we use it: for example, we probably use ls and cd a lot more than git, yet we don't write endless blog posts about how easy ls and cd are. If git really were that easy, it wouldn't need so much explaining.
