I’m wondering if you use any (graphical) clients to manage your Git, and if so, what client you use.

I myself have to use git professionally across all 3 major OS-es, and I currently use Sourcetree on Windows and macOS, and the Git tools built-in into IntelliJ on Linux.

Have given MaGit a try, but just couldn’t get all the shortcuts to stick in my mind.

Interested to hear your experiences!

    Yeah, maybe it’s because I learned git from the graph, but I find it really helpful when figuring out why a certain piece of code ended up looking like it does (the ability to see the changes made in every commit and open versions of the files at any point in history without checking out the commit is also very useful).

    And yeah, if you need or want the command line it always lets you open a git prompt for you to do whatever you want, which is nice.

    Also, again maybe because it’s what I’ve gotten used to, but I find the way it handles merge or rebase conflicts more useable (or rather less unusable) than any other I’ve tried…
