I used CVS and ClearCase before moving into Git, and it took me some time to adjust to the fact that the cost of branching in Git is much much less than ClearCase. And getting into the “distributed” mindset didn’t happen overnight.

      Tbf I’ve been using Git for at least 10 years and I only just discovered this. I think nobody talks about it because it doesn’t show history which is 90% of the reason to use a Git GUI.

        What do you mean it doesn’t show history? It’s perhaps the only thing it handles better than most third-party git GUIs.

      git: 'gui' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
