Once you have a decent mental model of git, it works well.
Using git with magit is excellent.
Before I had a good mental model of git, I would've been comfortable with flows like 'add, commit, push' (and the smallest amount of branching from that; 'checkout -b', 'pull').
-- I wasn't able to easily dig myself out of holes I got into if I made the wrong command.

The repo "git flight rules", which explains how to fix problems you get into, has 33k stars. https://github.com/k88hudson/git-flight-rules
