The problem isn't mygitwrapper.sh. You need to know those git commands to write that wrapper. The problem is people taking someone else's mygitwrapper.sh and using that instead of learning git.

    I had this fight at work once. Someone wanted to write a makefile to invoke pytest. I didn't want to do that because I wanted people to know how pytest works, so when something goes wrong they know they can do -vv or --pdb or whatever.

    Scripts that cover trivial steps and obscure stuff people should know, I'm not a fan of.
