I was just struggling with several things that should be simple[1], but

tool. But for the wrong users it's a infuriatingly frustrating
time-suck to do...just about anything. And I've argued [3] that _most_
users are the wrong users.

So...does Git create a net time gain or net time loss in the world? For
me it's a _massive_ net loss.

[1] It doesn't matter what they are, they should have been simple, in
any other VCS I'm familiar with they ARE simple, but for Git I wasted
over a cumulative hour Googling.
