I don't think the analogy holds here though.

I type 'svn commit' 'svn update', it works. quickly.

For me, it's like suggesting I change from using 'cd' to change directory, to using 'awesome-cd' to change directory :/

I have never used SVN or Git (I use Hg at home and VSS at work), so I can't say there.

What I can say is that I didn't realize how painful Java was for me until I started learning Python. That may be a closer analogy, though still not perfect.

Why would I switch from horses to these new-fangled automatic carriages? Horses get me where I need to go.
