Is anyone here using a GUI for git? If yes - which one and why? (szmer.info)

I ask because I like console, but at the same time have difficulties remembering all the commands. I'd like to try a GUI that is comfortable to use with only a keyboard.

My inbox got fediversized, fantastic feeling.

I am pretty hooked to SmartGit. I absolutely love their branch and commit view and haven't found another tool that visualizes the tree quite as good (for my taste; I assume it has to do with familiarization over time).

I did however buy a lifetime license when they still offered them. Their current pricing model would have probably turned me off before I even got hooked. It is absolutely worth a look though.

I go on yearly adventures to try out other tools. Keep coming back to SmartGit. Simple, effective, and actually smart. But yeah, lifetime license makes it easier.
