I was not talking about commands that git gurus simply do not use.  I 
explicitely avoided asking "git gurus" for what they use.

From the survey it is utterly clear that the available UI tools are still 
not good enough.

So once again, what operations involving git do people use regularly?

P.S.: If nobody replies with actual daily workflows to this mail, I'll 
just assume that this complaint in the user survey was just bullocks, and 
no change in git is needed.
