Ian says, “While git’s user interface does have its critics (which include me!), its rich functionality, flexibility and performance are making it the power user’s dvcs of choice. Even if you accidentally shoot yourself in the foot (or vaporise your leg) due to some ill-considered command line syntax, there will be a way to recondense the vapour cloud back into a leg and stick it back on. As a friend of mine said recently, while you might either love or hate Marmite, with git many people both love and hate it.”
