gollark: Yes, the git CLI is quite uncool.
gollark: best SCM:```tar cvf "$(basename \"$(pwd)\")$(date +%Y-%m-%d-%H%M%S)".tar --exclude='*.tar' .```
gollark: It doesn't have issue-tracker/wiki/PR etc. functions built in so there are proprietary platforms for these, there is entirely too much state everywhere (I mean, you manage the stash, branches, tags, tracked files, whatever else), it uses a ton of files instead of a COOL™ SQLite3 database, and the CLI is inconsistent and overcomplicated.
gollark: I don't care, I just don't like its design.
