minus-squarerhabarbalinkfedilink0•1 month ago Git is for bazaar-style development. However, most of my own projects are cathedral-style. Git’s default user experience (CLI command syntax, for example) is weird. There are reasons why Git GUIs are popular and (e.g.) SVN GUIs never were. Git is rather spammy in terms of hard disk usage.

minus-square@SpaceNoodle@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink0•1 month ago Nothing is preventing git from being used for cathedral development. Nothing is preventing you from using any of the plethora of frontends available. If all of your projects are a single file, you have much deeper problems than selecting source control.
There are better backends though.
