I just went through this with most of the engineers at our company as they're mostly .NET devs. It's an ongoing process but I basically gave a big talk open to questions on how to use git, all the commands, and the benefits of using the CLI. Thankfully they have a willingness to learn and become better developers and so it's been going pretty smoothly outside of a couple hiccups where I had to step in and perform git-surgery and explain to them how things work a bit better.
>One of them keeps committing line endings differently than everyone else, and he literally won't run git config --global core.autocrlf true because... I dunno why. He just doesn't want to, because it's the command line.
It sounds like someone needs to have a conversation with this engineer. I personally wouldn't want a single engineer on my team or company that has a resistance to learning new skills. Learning new things and better ways to do those things is basically the job description. Hopefully they have a good reason other than being obstinate otherwise they might need to find a new company that tolerates mediocrity :/
