Bah. The new generation, like the previous generation, is always worse than the current generation.
On a more serious note, I try to avoid the error of believing my personal preferences are evidence of superiority. (I mean superiority in the things I prefer; obviously they're evidence of my personal superiority.) My preferred editor is vim, and I get cranky1 if I'm asked to use anything else. But I'd never suggest anyone else should adopt vim. I mean, if you like it, great; but it is a relic of another time and does not objectively make sense for most users.
I've used git for years, and I continue to hate it. But I think it is appropriate for its intended application. And that it's wildly misused for other things, so I don't see any reason to cheer its spread. You may feel differently, but that is not, in itself, evidence that git's dominance is a good thing.
1I was going to write "I get unpleasant", but then it occurred to me that I'm always unpleasant.
