I used it once for version controlling my master’s when I was writing it. I wrote it in Markdown with Pandoc syntax, so it worked. I eventually gave up and just used LibreOffice, though, since it was a hassle
I worked with LaTeX a lot, but none of my collaborators used git. They just dump the files in dropbox. Still nice to use git just for yourself so you can view changes easily.
Both lol. The reason is that I had to render it to DOCX each time for my PI to review it, because she was an old retrograde woman. Therefore, rendering the document, committing changes and reading Git and Pandoc documentation took time – the time that I could’ve used to write the actual thing

Was it the version controlling or writing in markdown part that was a hassle?
