The likelihood for this conversation to occur, in a way, also depends on the tool itself, and tells us something about it.

As a matter of fact, git is hard to use.

The question is: keeping the same level of functionality, could it have been made easy to use?

It also speaks about the quality of users as a whole - we somehow forgot to RTFM at all or lead people to documentations, simultaneously accepting lack of documentation in a vicious cycle.

And the answer is: yes, absolutely. Mercurial is a whole level better. Unfortunately git won - because of GitHub, not on technical merit.
