Well, this answer shows me you didn't actually do any research, which is

I think it is extremely unhelpful on your part to object so strongly to 
something you don't understand, that you say you don't even want to put time

A lot of the things you say are demonstratively wrong, like doing a checkout 
implying 'hundreds of megabytes' download. Not sure how to work with 
something like that.
