Is this really true? When I want to reorder commits, I just drag & drop in a GUI and I’m done. Or if I want to switch branch or manage a complex mix of rebases or cherry picks, it’s just 2 or 3 clicks. In CLI, by the time I’ve typed out the commit hash or locator, it’s already taken longer. And I type 130 words per minute.

i don’t think i’ve typed out a full hash in … years? if i have i’ve used the short 8 character hash.
git rev-parse might be something useful to have a look at, especially when combined with aliases.
