This is a very interesting take.
I have a similar view when we mention A-Git-Flow or whatever that is. We would be using a tool in a very surprising way. I don't know if
that's good, at all.

We would be pushing that complexity only to committers, not to
ocasional contributors, which may help attracting people. But, on the other hand, we would force people who is already very busy (and very efficient with their current workflow) to discard their way to do
things and learn another.

The Github workflow is more complicated:

- fork the repository on the forge website
- clone your fork from the forge to your local machine
- checkout a new branch
- make a commit
- push the commit from your local checkout to your fork on the forge - go to the forge website to open a pull request from your fork to the upstream repository

The AGit flow:

- clone the upstream repository
- checkout a new branch
- make a commit
- push the commit as a PR to the forge.

Am I overlooking something?
