Let me eat the crow of getting drawn back in and cap this conversation with a summary. I think this is important because criticizing Git's UX is always like this.

OP: No one should be worried about using Git to do a thing.

bulatb: I'm worried it will be unpleasant.

seba_dos1: Here is what will happen when you do the thing.

bulatb: I know, but doing it will be unpleasant.

seba_dos1: You must not understand what's going to happen.

bulatb: I do. The process is unpleasant.

seba_dos1: You must not understand what's going to happen.

Had you actually read what I wrote, you would rather summarize it as "Git is showing exactly what's going to happen when you attempt to do it, all you have to do to make is pleasant is to not ignore it". Reading things requires unpleasant effort though, I get it.

I'm sorry (like actually sorry) if I'm getting into counter-condescension here, but, like...

> all you have to do to make is pleasant

This is an assumption about what I find unpleasant and why. I take it you think "reading information" and "understanding instructions" are some of those things I don't like. Your conclusion that I must not understand is based on that assumption.

The assumption is wrong.

If you can grant me that, my problem looks different. If you can't or won't, my summary was right.

If the assumption was wrong, then your first comment was pretty much useless, and the second one didn't help either as it just describes doing things carelessly and without proper understanding. So if that reading of it is wrong, then it was just complaining for complaining's sake and not about Git at all, but rather about what you happen to find scary for some undisclosed reason?
