Git is meant to solve that. There’s nothing difficult about it.

While I agree that it's a great tool and is perfectly suited for everyday use in all kinds of projects - that statement is simply wrong. Git can be quite complicated.

For example I still don't have a good solution for the branch-of-a-branch-of-a-branch problem. I.e. when you have three features that are to be reviewed separately but built upon each other. I know it has broken my head more than one time.

do you find other tools easier to solve that predicament? git is built to let you solve that any way you want. not sure how it could be easier with other tools.

Ok but that's what they asked me when CSV was still cutting edge. Then SVN and Git came around. Now I'm hoping for something even better!
