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.
[edit]
My inbox got fediversized, fantastic feeling.

It's a paid app only available for Windows and Mac at the moment, but Fork may be worth a look: https://git-fork.com

    I am using it too and I love it. I only know source tree as a competitor and in comparision it sucks....

    You dont have to pay for it, even when using it comercially (unpess they changed that)

    It has a "free evaluation" that I think can be as long as you want it to be / honor system.
    Its been worth it to me to pick up a license and support the development though. Its reasonably priced (for a dev tool) / no subscription and definitely beats the free clients I was using before (Sourcetree/GithubDesktop).

    Came here to recommend it too, really neat and practical tool and I haven't found a better alternative yet. Honestly I don't know why are people so against GUI git tools, it makes visualizing branches and commits so much more easier. I don't think you can use it only with your keyboard as OP asked though, dunno how important that is to them.
