I don't know if this constitutes a "power user" usage pattern, but watching a colleague try to work with Unity with dual monitors was hugely amusing. I'm curious to know what you can do in one command in bazaar that you need 4 in git to do.
Here's my power user setup for dual monitors with Unity: 1. Plug in dual monitor to HDMI port. 2. Use Unity. What did your colleague have trouble with? (Four might have been slight hyperbole, but git is a usability nightmare. I forget what exact task I can do in one command that it takes 3-4 to do in git, there's probably some set of absurd arguments to do it in fewer, but I don't know them and am not willing to spen…
I remember him trying to move a window to the other monitor and having bounce back repeatedly. Very funny to watch.
