It's depressing how git tooling has to squish out all the flexibility that makes git attractive in the name of being unsurprising to someone who doesn't understand git.

I was excited to finally bring in git as we start ramping down on a legacy project onto something new. Then I started thinking about the developers that have never touched git and I need to support. I looked at the tools available and what workflows they dictate. Then there's the drive to do something similar to the rest of the company, autonomy only goes so far without a good reason.

Fuck me. I'm going to pick GitLab and hate it.
