Having been that person (albeit before Git was the one true way), I'm sorry. But seemed so nice and had solid externals and sparse checkouts back in the day. And as bad as it got for us, it still felt easier to pick up and use than early Git.

Sure, and I was that person with the svn -> git migration at a different gig. Ideally our behavior matures over time.

For me, at least, two things made git really manageable: github and the O'Reilly book. After those git was a no brainer. Even now, if you don't need the integrations it's not so unreasonable to use something else (altho bzr's been discontinued).
