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.
