> Git commands are too many, too low-level and hard to understand.
Most of these are 'plumbing' commands, not 'porcelain' commands. Perhaps the author should have read the book on the Git website¹, as it explains this.
> Git tracks 4 versions of files, instead of just "my" version and "the team's" version.
This is because it's a distributed version control system, not just a tool to upload files to GitHub.
It seems like the author hasn't even taken the time to understand the basics of Git, and its design goals, before writing this ignorant screed.
