My pet peeve is how many steps it is to resolve a merge conflict on a branch I've pushed when were using controlled merges into dev branch. Stash or commit my work on the new feature branch I've started, then switch to dev, then pull, then switch back to my old conflicty feature branch, then merge from dev and resolve the conflicts, then push, then go to the server and complete the merge, then switch back to my old stashed branch so I can get back to work.

No need to switch to dev:

  git co feature_branch
  git fetch origin dev
  git merge FETCH_HEAD
