alt Hacker News> Git has horrible design and ergonomics.
People say this and never has written about the supposed failure of design. Git has a very good conceptual model, and then provides operations (aptly named when you know about the model) to manipulate it.
Most people who complains about git only think of it as code storage (folder {v1,v2,...}) instead of version control.

If you don't want to look at what people write you can't say that they haven't written about it.
> the supposed failure of design
I don’t think people complain about the internals of git itself as much as the complexity of all the operations.
If you want to read about complaints, you really don't have to look further than the myriad of git GUIs, TUIs and otherwise alternative/simplified interfaces.
