We should start recommending UIs as the default way to learn Git. It would solve a third of these problems and another third wouldn't even come up.

If you later decide that the CLI is faster, go ahead. But first, people need to see visually how they can interact with the tree.

I like fork.dev, but most clients are pretty similar at this point.

lazygit ! Just needed to throw out a mention because it’s an amazing tui for visual orientation, is super fast, and can be used with a mouse and keyboard (or just keyboard) from the terminal. I saw it mentioned on a thread here last year and have preferred it as a fast “oh crap I think I made a mess lets back up” tool over the more complex gui apps I’ve tried (almost all of them).
