Isn’t it easier to type the cmds then to write all that?

Obviously it is if you know them.

"gitgpt make me a sandwich" isn't going anywhere fast.

Understanding what you can tell gitgpt to do is extremely adjacent to knowing actual git commands.

It's adjacent but it's not the same. Knowing that you can get git to give you a bisect of two branches starting 3 commits ago with a short log description is quite different to knowing the command to do it.
