git is not for the non-technical user

of course. That's why I want a git for the non-technical user.

non-techies also have a need for version control. They just don't have access to it.

If I had said, "I want rsync for non-technical users" a couple years back, I'm saying I wish there was something like Dropbox. You might have said "rsync isn't for non-technical users", which is besides the point.

Most non-techies actually don't need version control. At least not version control that works the same way source code version control works. Writers and digital artists already have infinite layers of undo in their authoring software which is generally good enough.

I would almost argue source control period isn't for the non-technical user, but I could see some fringe cases where training non-techies to use it would be useful. But git is DEFINITELY not for the non-technical user.

Edit: Just to be clear, as a technical user, I love git.
