Yes, Magit solves the two main issues I had with git and made me avoid it for a while. It provides:

1) A simple interface, with good discoverability (options and functions shown);

2) Good visualization and operations on the current state, with work tree and index, in a simple and intuitive way.

People often complain about the CLI interface, but for me (2) is also important. Having a compact, simple representation of what's changed in the work tree and index, and easy manipulation, is important to reduce the cognitive load. No need to keep track of this in your head, just look at the Magit status window.

Came here to praise Magit. Even if you don't know Emacs, Magit is worth learning (and not entirely "emacsey", has its own interaction paradigms). Even if you don't plan on sticking with Magit for longer, it will illuminate your path towards better understanding of Git itself.

The only danger is it will spoil you.
