It takes well planned effort to remain obstinately obtuse as thengit UI does. ;)
Joking aside, I only use a subset of git functionality which generally suffices. The part that keeps me happy is that the tools for detecting files renames, and diff’ing tools continue to improve and become very useable (despite the diff options being quite archane at times). There was an article a while back discussing how git’s straightforward approach of storing the original data blocks allowed the continued improvement of the diff and rename tracking tools in contrast to others like mercurial or bazaar which tried more sophisticated delta (?) techniques upfront. Wish I could find that article again, but it would support the parent’s premise that choosing the right models and framework make a 10x programmer.
