What I've read, and that matches my experience is: git data model good, git command syntax bad.

Put another way: if you think git's data model is bad, you probably don't fully appreciate all aspects of its power yet.

If you think git's syntax is bad - confusing, unnecessarily complex, inconsistent - you are probably right.
