Another reason I just manually backup my project and avoid Git despite all my other developer friends shaming me. One command and I am out of there.

That doesnt sound like a good reason. What other reasons could you possibly have to do copypasta backups over what you can at least use as a diff based backup letting you still access any old version you want

I just find frequent full backups give me more control and less surprises when I find out my code did not sync/commit or some other issue. Done it for 3 years and it has been very worthwhile. Saved my project from a loss so many times now.
