Man, You don't make any sense. It's true that GIT's cmd is more complicated than SVN but that's unavoidable due to the nature of DVCS. While I agree that it could be improved still and that the command names are sometimes confusing, I also have to point out that Git's cmd is very flexible due to aliases. In fact I use most of the time my own git aliases. Regarding Git's identifiers - SHA1 makes perfect sense once you internalize that a global versioning system is not possible in a distributed system. Hence the problem lies with the fact that you've got accustomed to SVN's revision system which I'd argue is an unfit design.
