I understand why everyone wants git cheatsheets (there are a lot of commands), but I have yet to see a cheatsheet/etc that does little more than become a crutch.

For better or for worse, git really demands that you learn the concepts and fundamentals. It has a steep learning curve, but it's one that easily pays dividends.

Do I wish it were easier to learn? Of course.

Can you substitute actually learning how git and its workflows are used with cheatsheets and quick primers? Not remotely.

That being said, I think this one is a step in the right direction by being interactive. Something like a "git simulator" could be incredibly powerful in teaching people git.
