> How long did it take you to become proficient?

As with anything, it varies: I've heard some folks say "a few hours" and I've had friends who have bounced off two or three times before it clicks.

Personally, I did some reading about it, didn't really stick. One Saturday morning I woke up early and decided to give it a real try, and I was mostly good by the end of the day, swore of git entirely a week later.

> I assume the organization uses git and you use jujitsu locally, as a layer on top?

This is basically 100% of usage outside of Google, yeah. The git backend is the only open source one I'm aware of. Eventually that will change...
