That's why I'm a huge shill for gitkraken. It's a paid product so I'm a little hesitant sometimes but I've used them all and nothing compares to the power it unleashes. It completely lifts the curtain on the black box that many developers experience in the terminal and puts the graph front and center. It exposes rebasing operations in an effortless and intuitive visual way that makes git fun. As a result, I feel really proficient and I'm not scared of git at all. I can fix just about anything and paint the picture I want to see by carefully composing commits rather than being at the mercy of the CLI. I still see CLI proficiency as a valuable skill but it's so painful sometimes to watch seasoned 10 yr developers try to solve the most basic problems or completely wreck the history in a project because they're taught you can't be a real engineer if you don't use the git CLI exclusively. Lately I've resorted to arguing "use the CLI but you should at least be looking at the graph in another window throughout the day - which you can do for free in vs code, jetbrains, or even the CLI" For example: anytime one of my teammates merges a pr, I see it and I rebase my branch right away. As a result my branch is always up to date and based on main so I never run in to merge hell or drop those awful "fix conflicts" commits in the history.
