Comment on Git Fork: A fast and friendly Git client for Windows and Macparent

Comments

In my case my git usage is so mundane that the most basic of its CLI commands are sufficient 98% of the time. Reaching for the more advanced commands is so infrequent that they don't ever stick meaning I'm always looking them up (and probably subsequently screwing them up).

My work is scattered across different IDEs/editors too so the differing UI conventions of integrated VCS make that more trouble than it's worth.

So I just use Fork all the time. It covers base case very well regardless of the project, and on the occasion that I need to do something more fancy I can do it without pulling up docs and with far fewer screwups.
