POV of a tech writer:
IMHO, git is so hard to learn because the devs chose to name everything as obscurely as possible.
Why call it "blame" when it does not blame anyone but rather adds revision info. "Stash the changes in a dirty working directory away"? Why is it dirty now? "git commit --all", except it does not commit all changes. And WTF is "porcelain format" again?!
Like, whenever you open the docs, it feels like using the "pick-axe interface" on your "HEAD" until it "bisects".
