The spectrum of Command Line Interface pleasantness has MegaCLI and Git as extremes. I'll let you guess which extreme is which.

@evan: I think you just need better TAB-completion :)

(git log --one<TAB> works just fine here)

The one that get me is git log . --stat not working. every time.

Or an alias in ~/.gitconfig

@zack@identi.ca I think git's command line has unneeded in consistencies. Eg remote rm vs branch -d. On the other hand MegaCLI is it's own special layer of horror. Git is vastly vastly better, like it has help in man pages. And logically grouped subcommands. And tab completion, and it's the rare git command that needs \'s.
