No, it isn't. Git is unopinionated and doesn't try to shove some half-baked idea of "best practices" and "you're doing it wrong" down your throat.

This means there is no friction in adopting Git at the workplace.

>>This means there is no friction in adopting Git at the workplace. It could be said that the virality (network effect) is higher as it spreads easier. Anything is opinionated it's just whether or not those opinions align with your internal values. It appears git aligns with you.
