For anybody who thinks git is hard, I'll just leave here my own thoughts on the matter.
As a user - not specifically a Gentoo user - I only need to know 3 commands: - git clone <URI> - git pull - tig That's it. Tig is in dev-vcs/tig, BTW, and it's really handy. When I experimented with managing my config files with git I did a lot of reading (I was new to VCS in general), and in the end I realized that, although git is really powerful and complex, for my needs I actually really needed to know just a handful of basic commands, and I could use tig and/or gitk for almost anything. -- Emanuele Rusconi
