    It’s also an environment of weird verbosity. Try using libgit2 to do a clone, checkout, commit, push. It’s rediculous.

    The cli abstracts it at least. But idk why the preference seems to be uber verbosity. We can have that verbosity and macros but nope.

      What do you mean by verbosity? Are the commands long or is the command output long?

        libgit2 is a library that folks use to implement git functionality inside of their applications. Writing the equivalent code via libgit2 to those standard git cli operations tend to be rather long and verbose compared to the one line cli commands.
