My company wanted to "script away" all the "pain" of using Git to make it equivalent to Clearcase. I think it's a smell. If you want to use Clearcase, use Clearcase. etc.



I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. Using scripts to change how devs interact with git is just putting a new porcelain on the plumbing.


Except you now have a set of tools without proper documentation and no way of googlng issues. And chances are you created a new leaky abstraction.
