> - I tried magit and just didn't get it. I couldn't couldn't find a happy path where I thought, "ah yes this is niice".
I mostly use plain git instead of Magit, for more or less the same reason, although I like git's UI.
I did find a happy path, though. Magit's blame interface is very nice to recursively call git-blame and navigate history of pieces of code. I ended up making a CLI program to improve git blame[1] so that I didn't end up switching to Magit just for that, but doing git-blame from Magit is still better.
