At the hidden cost of educating millions of users how git actually operates once they can't restore a file

Neither of these two commands are any more really-operates than the other.

  • How do you figure? Are you discarding the semantics of how people invoke git? If so why advocate for "restore" to begin with?

    • I don’t know what the semantics of invoking Git means?

      These two commands operate on the same level of abstraction. And they should be equally powerful, which means that whichever you choose to learn will be able to serve all of your restore-content needs. That's what I mean.

      Of course there is always the pedagogic cost of having two similar commands.
