I ❤️ Git. But honestly, it intimidated me for years. I thought I needed to understand all its powerful features to be productive. I found that's not the case. You can be quite productive in Git with around 6 commands:

branch
checkout
add
commit
pull
push

Once you have those down, learn these to be more of a power user:
fetch
merge
diff

(Using these commands instead of `pull` gives you more power over how you handle merges)

And all that said, I rarely type any of these commands anymore: @code has such excellent Git integration that I typically just use it. 😀
