I really never understood why one would need a GUI for git except for visualizing branches.
I feel like I'm crazy seeing so many people using clicky buttons for tracking files. I need like 4 commands for 95% of what I do and the rest you look up.
You're already programming! Just learn the tool!
And now there's a github CLI tool? I hate to beat a dead horse but Microsoft pushing their extended version of an open source tool/protocol is literally the second step of their mantra.
FWIW not everyone using source control is a programmer. I've seen artists in game dev using GUI tools to pull new changes and push their assets.
That's fair, there's plenty of uses for source control.
I was speaking from a programming context though, as this is a programming community.
