These aren't troubles of someone who understands. If anyone else reading this has these kinds of troubles too - don't worry, understanding abstractions takes time and effort, you'll get there eventually (not if you'll keep blaming others though).

Let me eat the crow of getting drawn back in and cap this conversation with a summary. I think this is important because criticizing Git's UX is always like this.

OP: No one should be worried about using Git to do a thing.

bulatb: I'm worried it will be unpleasant.

seba_dos1: Here is what will happen when you do the thing.

bulatb: I know, but doing it will be unpleasant.

seba_dos1: You must not understand what's going to happen.

bulatb: I do. The process is unpleasant.

seba_dos1: You must not understand what's going to happen.
