Git is SO SO SO much better than what we had before. Do you remember cvs? subversion? Uff that was painful. It appeared at the correct time and it expanded quickly because it was the most popular free tool at the time. As with car driving, It is easy to start using it but difficult to master, but you don't really need to master it to be proficient with it.

You obviously never tried mercurial, or some of the other options like Darcs.
Yes, CVS was painful. I still have SVN repos where I work, and I try to stay as away from them as I can (helped migrating some of them to git). But Git is no saviour, and there are much better options out there.
