It does make me feel a little better, all this ranting. And "bite the bullet and move on" is only possible if the people that actually know git actively help out the many active contributors that are complete newbies at it.
One of the first things I like to see is an actual step-by-step in the Wiki that lists and explains all the commands we need to use if we want our code to move from our machines to somewhere where it is integrated and available to everyone else. If possible, it also explains where this 'somewhere' is and how you can keep your local code up to date with it (without having to worry you're on a different branch/fork/hub than most other people). Still confused, EdB PS. This will be my last "rant" on this subject, I'll kick the dog if I need to feel better from here on out.
