I just read the 'intro' presentation ( http://people.gnome.org/~newren/eg/presentations/git-introdu... ) and I have to say I am really excited to try easygit out. It stays very similar to the way git operates, but it seems to make the default actions far more logical to me. Even as someone who has spent time trying to 'master' git really appreciate this effort.
I tried eg - but unfortunately, it's a leaky abstraction. As soon as something went wrong (and to this day I have no idea what), I was confronted will full-on git errors, suggesting I use git commands to fix them.
