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!

    When I learned Git I think there were not decent tools, so I got used to the command line.

    I occasionally use gitk for reviewing my commits- it’s nicer to see the files modified and be able to jump back and forth, although I get I could use git log -p instead.

    I’m an Emacs user, but I don’t use magit (!)

    I like some of the graphical tools- some colleagues use Fork and I like it… but as I’ve already learned the CLI, I don’t see the point for me.

    I could use learning some jj because it automates some of the most tedious parts of my workflow, but I’m getting too old.
