I'm a big fan of the GitHub for Mac GUI, I still have to drop down to the terminal to handle a few specific commands (especially when the GUI gets stuck in a merge conflict loop), but it helps me quickly handle stuff and thumb through local repos, especially helping me visualize stuff.
One thing I've noticed is that GitHub's web interface often misrepresents the number of branches we have. The number count is correct, but master is the only branch visible. And it only seems to happen after merges with the GUI...
On the website, we only show you branches with unique commits. So if you merge a branch, it won't appear. This kind of sucks, but that page will get better with time.
