Am I alone in thinking that the scope of gits functionality is way too unnecessary? I need version control, not a memory minigame every time I want to push code.
Like holy shit okay the default functions are fine, pulling, pushing fetching... some work could be done in terms of better naming conventions but it's easy enough. However all hell breaks loose when it comes to rebasing, squashing commits, foxing merge conflicts and altering history, especially on projects with more than a few developers. And everyone has a different workflow with git, some people use the stash, others (me) avoid it entirely, so everyones confused whenever there's a git issue.
Don't even get me started on the git merge conflict vim, what the fuck is that LMAO. Who is realistically supposed to use that when all people want to do is have a working version control that isn't a convoluted meme?? Can we go back to SVN pls

I thought so too until I realized you basically only need to memorize 4 commands and you're good to go, and there are even GUIs if it's too complicated...

This, for everything else there's stackoverflow.

And why would you want a repository management system that forces you to search for answers?
Svn doesn't do this.

So how's your first programming class, OP? I know, there's a lot of hard concepts to take in, but try to stick with it. making threads and shitting up this already terrible board is doing nothing to help anyone.
Shut up, put your head down and get to work.

I'm too lazy to check, but I assume someone has written a wrapper interface that isn't retarded.

mercurial > svn > cvs > bloated turd git
Most people use Git for the reason that most people use windows: Everyone else does so you are forced in to using it or be left out in the cold.
Stand up against the shitty git monopoly and embrace diversity in SCM.

At least it's not mercurial.

Just use RCS

I use RCS a lot for things like server configs or small scripts, it does the job if you only want to be able to rollback changes, if that is all you're doing, git is total overkill. Mercurial is my bae tho
