Actually when I learned git I never learned one command after another,
rather I learned the flows and the most the scenarios mentioned in
this thread mostly got covered then in either first or second flow I
was trying. What learning flows enabled was, for me to experience how
commands are inter-related.

It basically depends how a person learns the tool. My way of learning
a tool is to learn flows. I have also taken the same steps to teach
some of my friends and colleagues git and all seem to understand the
stuffs :). But hey, that is my opinion :) only.
