You can make git simpler by

  • taking a subset of it (forget submodules, rebase, ...)
  • use the pull request instead of the commit as the unit of work
  • use a good GUI tool - personally I use IntelliJ because I don't care about the staging area, I want auto-fetch, I don't want to have to type branch names, I want to see the diffs in my editor, ...
