So judging by the number of Git-related posts here on HN I can assume that Git has taken over. Sad, but true.

You've been downvoted... but seriously, why is this such a bad thing?

Git is too complicated for most use cases, but seems to be becoming a de facto standard for even the simplest collaborative tasks.

I use it both for personal projects that will never have another human look at them, as well as for large multi-user projects.

In what was is it too complicated for most use cases? Most use cases involve "code being worked on by multiple people", in which case it has seen great success.

For simple collaborative tasks, git is rather simple. You'll need just a handful of commands.

And as a bonus, you're using a tool that has the capacity to grow as necessary.

I think this complain only comes from people who are too lazy to learn git. It's really not that hard.
