> I'll take your word for it, but the git man pages are notoriously unreadable. They might be useful for a git guru, but for someone that is learning the commands they are downright harmful.
Can you elaborate? I'm definitely not a git guru and I always read the man pages, and I find them quite readable. It's also the first place I learn best practices from.
Sure. I think this is largely a matter of preferences in pedagogy, but when I'm looking to learn something, I like to have heavily annotated examples that get progressively more complex.
Listing every option with a description, to me, is not as useful as seeing it in practice.
