Git

Do you think that git improved your workflow in comparison with SVN (or even CVS)?

I'm using git mainly to upload crap to github. And it is annoying as hell, I'm have to deal with these useless branches, rebases and merges. Life was a lot easier in the times of zip archives and rapidshare.

At my former work GIT was more like a nuisance, because people wasted a lot of time, when managed decided to use it instead of Mercurial (which admittedly has a lot better GUI).
