conceptual designs should be created before. Not afterwards. Using it for analysis of a product will of course create a complicate view since evolution of a product is missed.

This feels more like a learning exercise than an actual critique of git that would necessitate some kind of response. I thought it was a useful way to practice thinking about software design with a tool I already know.

They should perhaps revisit their title, then.

I mean, it's absolutely a criticism of git, so in that sense the title's spot on; it's not a pull request, or a suggestion that we should all go out and stop using git.

I mostly took issue with GP's implication that there was no reason to perform a conceptual design review after the software's already created.

Huh?

This is a critique of the conceptual designs, which is valid. And an improvement upon them IMHO.

I don't understand what you're arguing.
