Same here. The git commands were confusing to me until I actually saw a Linus video on youtube explaining how the git data structures worked under the hood. It was dead simple, and one could easily mentally map the tools' functions onto how they operated on the data structures.
Once I understood that, as you said, everything clicked into place.
Somehow the "higher level abstractions" that git tries to do makes the things ever so more confusing.
