Isn't github a good GUI already?

Well, technically, that's cross-platform...with 2 platforms only :D But yeah it's not yet available on linux.

A note on my own experience: 0. First, I aim to be comfy with git command, if not, then I will never understand git really.

I did that too using books, but as soon as I got into complex usage, I stoped because I didn't feel the need. I expect a good ui tool to provide me ready-to-use command line context to do some receipes if necessary.

1. Then, I use SourceTree where I can to complement git command (branches visualisation, etc.) 2. I use Qt Creator with its Git plugin which is nothing more than git command proxy, hence equivalent to git command. BTW, I'd like to do a bit of propaganda about Boost.Build support for Qt Creator: https://github.com/mloskot/qt-creator-plugin-boostbuild

I didn't try this one. noted. By the way, personally I don't like having plugins into IDE to manage repository. One reason is that I like to separate the time for coding (in the IDE) and the time for reviewing the code (in the DSVC ui tool) in particular if both tools takes the same full screen, so that I can be more critical to my own code (I don't have coworkers to review my code currently :/ ) The other reason is that most IDE plugins for managing repos I've used (in Eclipse and VS) tend to not provide enough commands or be very idiomatic and less flexible to setup your own team-specific workflow. But that's obviously minor things.
