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.

You're looking for Magit. It's so nice that even non-emacs users use emacs just for that.

I use both Magit and IntelliJ's Git support which is amazing. Using git without a GUI for things like merges, commit reviews, conflict resolution... is really painful.
