seriously, I know git is not the most user friendly, but really....

I attend to a course in my high school, like, it offers you a technical and a high school diploma in the end of tree years of course, anyway

last year I had this project. I had 4 other people working with me. I suggested we use git as there would be many people working in the project and git would help us manage all the files and get everything together in the end.

they didn't even bother to try learning it, I was like "fuck it, let's go without it", no one did anything till the last 2 weeks. then I was all stressed out getting the code together, manually, and the deadline was close.

In the end I wasn't able to put the chat this guy have made, he got mad and I was like "motherfucker, it would be one damn command `git merge` and your fucking chat would be in the final project"

oh it was great to get this out 😎😀
don't even know if I'm making sense xD

    I am currently learning git and it is a bit confusing first but I think the its essential when working in a team.

    @Dollique Keep applying what you learn. And make a habit of checking man pages often for git commands.

    I just know git status git add git commit git push. For the rest if it gets bad I call my friend and he uses sourcetree

    With my teammates there is no problem: I say we use git as that's the normal way and I hate the fact that we don't hear anything about versioning control in any lecture! Then they say it's too much to learn and I throw a simple gui at them. Then I show them some commands and they say that would be easier than the gui. I'm sure they will all learn some commands. Especially in the next semester we have a lecture about networking...

    I only use git from command line, so every time someone shows me his gui tool i'm like 'wtf is all this!?' :derp:

    @JerreMuesli Ya I've never tried the GUI version either. Just git bash all day every day.
