No.
It is more expressive, and can give more easily access to individual
patches (e.g. for pushing them upstream) when they get entangled with
others. I'm using it because I'm convinced that it implements the
right® packaging work-flow, as no other tool we currently have in our
toolbox.
... but it is, still, way more complex than legacy patch systems.
Also, it requires serious git-fu if you get stuck.
Cheers.
