I can’t understand what you mean at all. How does it make programming more robotic? I feel more empowered to be creative when I know I can get things back to a valid state if I break them too badly.

For personal projects I often just use an alias that commits in my project directory with no commit message. There’s no burden to it. Sometimes I might choose to do a detailed merge commit to add a description for a batch of changes once I’ve settled on something I like, but usually I don’t bother if I’m not going to be working with others.

I feel a lack of version control system is like adventure with less safety gear and more self-reliance. It's a bit more interesting to know that I can break things and thus, I am more careful and use my own senses. It's like a video game without instant save.
