I've used git for almost a year and it's still furiously unfun to interact with. It's not easy, it's not transparent, and it's not intuitive. You need to really, deeply understand git in order to use it. I don't want to really, deeply understand git any more than I really, deeply want to understand rsync. It's a tool. I just want to use it.

It took me a day to get to the point where I understood the internals of git well enough to be comfortable using it.
Well then you are just awesome. For anyone who has been using various source-control systems for many years, its commands are not intuitive, and cause unnecessary friction. Unfortunately, as elsewhere in life, the best tech does not always win, at least in the short-term.
