Though I'm using Git for about year now, I'm pretty much n00b. Outside of the obvious - git init/add/commit/diff/pull/push/update + gitk - I know very little. That's why it is also very hard for me to understand the usual complain about Git that it is very arcane. Yes, documentation is very poor and still can't catch up with all the features, yet you rarely run into the need for some esoteric function or syntax. Basic commands are pretty much "intuitive".
I'm basically the same as you. I rarely use anything but those commands, and I'd agree that git is pretty easy to use, as long as you're sticking to the basics.
From what I understand, git used to be a huge patchwork of scripts that were much more difficult, and they spent some time a while ago making them a bit easier.
