Git is much like Vim...user-unfriendly on the surface...but user friendly at the core. It is a simple tool that works, but is hard to understand for the beginner.

There's one key difference: vim's user manual is useful. git's user manual is not (see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16590497 for an example).

Yeah that's not an excuse though. It could easily have been user-friendly on the surface too!
