Git Client for OS X

What are los dudes using for an OS X GIT client? Or should I just use the faithful command-line?

Many thanks, as always.

I’ve found SmartGit to be pretty much the best there is.

Other than that, I use command line.

It’s a more advanced fork of GitX

Everett:

I would argue it’s best to learn Git on the command-line, and supplement it with something like GitX (which helps visualize your branches/merges in graphs, do visual, line-by-line cherry picking, etc.). Once you get familiar enough with the git commands you need to use daily, and all the options that can be used with them, you’ll understand why a GUI limits what you can do with the tool. But don’t get me wrong, I love GitX as a supplement to the CLI.

Also, (if using OS X) to make your life easier, make sure and enable the enhanced git shell which provides tab auto-completion for git commands, command options, branch names, remote names, and more. It makes life on the CLI much smoother.

And for Windows?

For windows, tortoisegit is evolving nicely and can be considered as a good GUI for git.

Using the command line on windows is really a pain, it requires some syntax changes compared to the default behaviour and is not fully compatible yet with all the commands available.

At least, tortoisegit only use some compatible command.

Damn Jason, I didn’t recognize you with your new Avatar. Yeah, I’m doing CLI stuff, but I needed some screenshots for an article and I was hoping to use something that was worth taking screenshots of...
