> 3. "Git does not track historical branch names" - The example he provides here shows a visual graph in Fossil of the branch history. The exact same thing is available in Git via "git log --graph --all --decorate" or a GUI that shows the graph.
No, that Git command only shows current local and remote branch heads, not the branches to which a commit historically belonged. If you look at the link he posted, that git hub page provides that same info. AFAIK Git does not store this historical information. If you look at the example links he provides, in Fossil each commit has tags saying what branch(es?) it belonged to.
I do agree with the rest of your points. I use a combo of GUI for viewing current state and easily adding/removing file, I also use more complicated git commands when I need to do stuff that isn't easy in the GUI I use.
