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 TortoiseGit.

The log window gives me overview and almost every action I need. Committing, diffing, switching, rebasing, creating and deleting branches and tags, pushing, fetching, merging, view logs of files, blaming, filtering…

The log view is still much better than the VS Git log view. And due to it's visual GUI it's much better than CLI when going beyond just one branch or a low number of my own branches.
