I have no wish to fully exploit the flexibility of git.  I understand
it is useful for those doing more complex things -- but, for me, it is
not merely useless, it is a screw.  (If it were merely useless to me,
I would not complain about it.)

Bzr has more or less the same flexibility as Git, and yet it has a
simple mode of operation which doesn't create this problem.  Surely
Git can have one too.
