That's why I said it's a UI designer's worst nightmare.

Because there are a lot of different kinds of workflows, and I don't even know how you'd begin to organize them. I mean, maybe it's not even possible.

It would just be nice if it were more possible to "ease into" Git, rather than feel like you have to go through the equivalent of a college semester learning it.

This is the point where I think it's appropriate to link another front page article: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4338845

I've learned Git about the same way I've learned *nix systems and programming languages in general: piecemeal, a step at a time, on a largely need-to-know basis. It's been 4 years now and I feel like a complete novice, but I rarely need to do anything other than (1) synching local with remote repo, (2) committing a change, and (3) using a feature branch.
