    It’s a fundamentally visual problem

    In what way do you mean git versioning is fundamentally visual?

    Or do you mean understanding it or visualising it? The data and its relationships?

      Git is a graph of commits and you can’t really display a graph in any way except visually. Even the CLI has a way of showing it visually (git log --graph).

      Think about other graphs you might interact with, e.g. node graphs in 3D graphics of music production. How many of them do you manipulate with a CLI?
