If only the people behind git knew about Leonardo da Vinci's "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication". Even https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/... would have suficed. Sigh. Well, job security is not bad either.

I used to think so too but now that I have taken some time to really get to understand Git and how it works I actually think that they have kept it pretty simple. It's all just patches that detail how to get from nothing to a certain point.

It is just a DAG of objects they say. A can of worms? I see a lot of wasted git activity in my vicinity. Waste of bloody time.
