What this means

“I don't need to know how it works.
I just want to know which commands to run.”

• This does not work because the commands do not make sense

• You need to be able to say “The repo is in this state, but I need it in that state”

• Then you can find a command that does that

• If you try to understand the commands without the model, you will suffer

• Because the commands do not make sense

• git-reset does up to three different things, depending on flags

• git-checkout is worse

• The opposite of git-push is not git-pull, it's git-fetch

• etc.

• You'll be perpetually confused about what is happening and why

• You won't know what questions to ask to find out what is going on
