Agreed. Over 10 years of development using Git and I perhaps ran into an issue like 10 times, which is once a year on average.

I can't think of any other tool that hasn't given me headaches at least once a day.

Git is actually remarkable tech and its unfortunate that the prevailing hivemind opinion is that its bad.

> prevailing hivemind opinion is that its bad.

I don’t think that’s true. I think the hive mind is that it’s good, or many “haha sucks but I use it all the time.”

I work sort of near “data science” and there’s lots of no code/low code people wanting to do data science (or at least bill for it). And I’d say the hive mind in non-coders is that fit is bad. But I think that’s more related to all coding is bad and git is like step 1 to coding so it’s the first hard step they hit.
