People should use just plain git." I strongly disagree. Git, like perl, is a Swiss Army chainsaw. (There's an interactive webpage that's there only to guide git users toward fixing mist= akes they make using it.) A chainsaw with attached scalpels is the right tool if= you need to amputate the hindleg of a live, kicking elephant near the hip and t= o do that fast. To butter my toast?
