I blame the easy-to-use guis

All the people I've worked with seem to use the command line. They just don't know much beyond "commit everything" and basic push/pull/branch/merge.

Conversely I learned most of what they don't know direct from the magit GUI. So I often don't know the specific command arguments. Not a good thing, but only a problem for communicating what to do to others.

Magit is super cool but not exactly easy to use :D
