I wish we had a version control system that can be used without worrying, or even knowing, about its technicalities and implementation details.

Working with Git for version control is as if your photo management tool required you to learn about inodes and b-tree superblocks in order to save a JPEG file. I just want to keep source code history, and allow multiple people to collaborate on the same project. I don't want to know anything about "refs" or whatever else is happening behind the scenes, yet it appears Git can't be used unless you are (at least occasionally) willing to look at the plumbing layer.
