Exactly, and it's such a high success rate! This is precisely why it enrages me when all HN discussion about Git devolves to the same stuff about how it's complex and this and that. A technical person who has general sense about basic data structures (Leetcode nonsense not needed) can be taught Git in under 2 hours and they will retain this knowledge forever. If you can't invest that little time to learning a tool you will use everyday and instead will spend hours Googling and blindly copy-pasting Git commands, that's on you, not on Git. |

Git is only a directed graph with the adjacencies stored as hashes. Everything else is just tooling around that data structure. No problem using Google to find the commands (the Git CLI is very inconsistent...) but if you know what you want to do with that data structure you can find precisely the commands for that.
