I drew those diagrams after reading Pro Git Book. I missed what appeared at my head, but the entire book is very useful.

For me, command line is freedom. GUIs are very limited.

Don't give up! For my humble experience:

- Try to know your peers, how they work, what difficulties they face when using command line, ...

- "I'm lost" > "git status"

- "How did we solve... ? > "git log"

- "This command is difficult to remember." or "This command makes no sense, I prefer this another name for that action" > "git alias"

Thanks for the feedback. The post only answers "Do we have a good safety net to change this legacy code?". Mutation testing is not a new concept. It's usually used in critical systems: the system is mutated and you measure the time for detecting the mutation and the time for solving the problem.

Thanks for the feedback! Right, this is only a help to have a mental map. Only some initial drawings for a mentor or trainer, not for the newbie.

I didn't know "whatchanged", thanks! However, look at the description: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-whatchanged
