My thoughts exactly. Maybe it's because I've used SVM and Mercurial before but I learned Git very easily. I find the commands and options fairly intuitive once you know you're manipulating a graph of patches.

But I guess this is very subjective. After all, I've never been able to master gnupg despite how long I've been using it for.

On the contrary, I find the "graph of patchs/Merkel tree/whatever" model pretty easy to understand, and have difficulty in using the commands to make the tree look like how I want it to.

The plumbing is nice, but the porcelain is covered in shit.
