I was learning git a decade ago, and all it took was at most two days of
reading. And yes, this includes the idea on how to rewrite commit history
(actually another one, very low-level; I don't expect anybody to ever think of
this way for the task).
I didn't have StackOverflow or plethora of tutorials on web that are present
today.

I keep hearing that, but once upon a time (seven? years ago) I tried learning
Mercurial, this paragon of usability, and I couldn't figure out one of the
simpler things: how to setup a repository to merge changes from two other
repositories without specifying full paths.
Given that, either I'm very smart, because I picked up git so quickly, but
so-praised Mercurial "is a mess", or I'm very stupid, because I couldn't
figure so simple Mercurial function, but then what does it say about people
who can't read the fsckin' git docs?
