This is the main issue I have: git does not follow the principle of least surprise. I'm sure it *can* do everything, if you know all of the switches and gotchas. But you don't, even if you think you do. Apparently many advanced git users have their subset well figured out, and those never can understand outsiders complaining about how difficult git can be.
Git solves the Linux kernel problem, and it solves it well. The thing is, Linus Torvalds is unique. No one else on the planet has a problem that big and complex to solve. Why is everyone trying to use a tool designed to serve his requirements?
For almost everyone else on the planet with a source control problem, using Git is like using a computer-controlled quilting and embroidering machine to sew lost buttons back onto a shirt.
