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.

I use the default git extension in vscodium. I usually code in vscodium anyway, so I just use it to commit my changes.

I think it is a better experience, you don't forget to add file when commiting changes, it is very easy to just commit couple files (instead of typing their name, just click the plus button), and writing multiline commit message is very easy.

I am one of the few Linux user that prefer not to use commandline when there is a graphical alternative.
