Is TortoiseGit ready for prime time yet? [closed]

Question

I'm a big fan of the simplicity of TortoiseSVN. I also am interested in digging into git, and think it would make a good fit for an upcoming project. However, a strictly command-line based app can be a little intimidating. I've followed the TortoiseGit project for a little while, and it looks like they are past 1.0.

Is there anyone using it in the wild right now? How's it working out? Does it let you use all of the features in git well?

Answer 1

YES, it's ready!

TortoiseGit has come a long way since 2009.
And now Microsoft Windows has the best graphical interface to git ;-)

It's especially nice for people that used TortoiseSVN, because it uses familiar dialogs and terminology. Like "Revert.." instead of "Reset / Checkout" or that it abstracts away the "index" in a single (commit) dialog.

Of course there is still room for improvement, mainly because most commands are forwarded to the commandline version, which doesn't give an optimal visualisation.
