If we're going to get into it, coding with git makes you more of a trad climber and less like a free soloist. Sometimes you run it out when the going is easy, sometimes you put in some extra protection when it looks sketchy. It's all about knowing your limits and taking calculated risks.
No one ever forces you to pull out all your gear and free solo the route, just like no one is going to delete your git repo and ask you to rewrite your code from scratch. These are just things a tiny minority of people do, sometimes with disastrous results.
That said I like the analogy. But maybe the take home is that we don't all need to be Alex Honnold, where one mistake means certain death, and can instead settle to be the guy who takes the occasional 15 foot fall.
