Well it could help you in that, and we know that because other VCSes do. Have you managed a large inexperienced team with an offshore component? You are herding cats and there is never enough time to look at everything.

Yep! The engineers we had worked fine like this with just Git, github issues and slack at the time. I've left the company but I know that slack didn't suit them well so they switched to something else.

They swear by git still though. It works fine.
