You are literally replying to a comment that describes a possible better CLI for git...

I suspect it was added in an edit in response to this comment. Dad is downvoted!

git has quite an inconsistent cli, this is well covered in "master git". And yes, I said it without proposing a better one.

"master git" This is a great demonstration of git's inconsistencies.
I maintain git stacks up well against other similarly mature/complex software (Nginx, AWS, Java), but it's a wonderful read nonetheless.
(And holy hell what a hard thing to search for...can't find the link.)

Thanks.
This is HN criticism #94238 on the terrible git CLI.
Okay, sure.
Would you kindly post your superior git CLI? Or at least the outline of it?

Snark aside, Git's popularity is not an accident. Bitbucket supported Mercurial too.
