Or they are by proxy.

*I* don't see that much of a problem with git pull; I can use it
without trouble at this point.  But I find it difficult to teach
to others.

My complaints about git pull/fetch/push are by proxy for about 10
other users who aren't on the mailing list but whom I interact with
through Git.  They don't like pull/fetch/push very much.

So count my complaints 10 times.  :)

Ok, that's still a drop in the bucket of current Git users.
But still, I'm sure there are others.  I think Carl was recently
talking about complaints from some Fedora folks...
