At the time of this writing, Git's been with us for over a decade and a half. During that time the ecosystem has absolutely exploded. From the rise of GitHub and GitLab to the myriad of new subcommands (just look at all this cool stuff), clearly Git has seen widespread adoption and success.
One such project is the Gitless initiative which has a Python wrapper around Git proper providing far-simpler workflows based on some solid research. Unfortunately it doesn't look like Gitless' Python codebase has had active development recently, which doesn't inspire much confidence.
An alternative project to both Git and Gitless is a little Rust project called Jujutsu. According to the project page Jujutsu aims, at least in part, to preserve compatibility with Git's on-disk format. Jujutsu also boasts its own "native" format letting you choose between using the jj binary as a front-end for Git data or as a net-new tool.
