i saw its application...i wanted to take a team of windows developers to git, and i just couldn't get reliability out of the current gui software out there (tortoisegit and git extensions). i kept going back, trying to make everything work out. i'd think that things are smooth, but then when i try to branch, something would go wrong. eventually i concluded that i was wasting too much time and i'll come back to it in six months (due to the time when the team would start was coming up soon), and then again in a year if need be. if there was no time constraint i might have downloaded the tortoisegit code and seen if i could fix the issues myself...(contribute to the project), although that is totally not the problem i was ultimately trying to solve.
also, in the code itself, i sometimes get caught up on trying to make everything perfect and try to take care of every edge case....often for things any user doing such a thing should know - this isn't going to work....but in case they try :) i want something friendly to happen.... and so on, and so on.

this isn't quite relevant because the tasks performed in the study aren't on the intellectually nontrivial side, I would think
