I am feeling the same thing about git, while having no problems using it. I used mercurial before, to me, the command were simpler, as well as the model.
For example, a branch can have several heads in mercurial, and it separates more easily fetch and merge. You don't have a origin/master and your master, but the master branche and corresponding heads. Rebase was not a standard command in mercurial and to me that's a good thing. So when some say git is like Clojure, for me it's more git is like Scala. It's ok to program in the language, you then learn all the plumbing part and start to be efficient in it.
