If you can't use git I don't see how you're gonna do with other things. It's dead simple.
Solving merge conflicts or rebasing is not simple
Do it enough times and it stops being scary.
Using a tool like VSCode to perform the actual merges on individual files also helps because it shows what "yours" and "theirs" changes are from a user perspective, not a git perspective
The 3-way merge editor in VSCode is a fantastic tool. Really helps in visualizing what comes from where and preventing merge accidents.
