Any chance you can use a GUI app like @gittower instead of the command line, take it, and if anyone sneers at you, be glad because you learned you don& #39;t have to value their opinion any more.
The command line is great for cutting-edge areas where there hasn& #39;t been time to build a nice GUI app or where things are changing too fast for it to make sense (npm/yarn for example)
I get that there isn& #39;t anything that a GUI app can do that you can& #39;t do on the command line, but the amount of information/power of actions from GUI is so much greater than from the command line that I really don& #39;t understand the arguments from the other side
I saw a tweet a while ago (and I& #39;m sorry that I can& #39;t remember who it was) that was asking for reasons to use a GUI app for git, and I was just so...I couldn& #39;t even figure out where to start. The amount of information I get from a glance at Tower would take...uncountable commands
And don& #39;t come at me with that "what if I& #39;m on another computer or SSHing????"

It& #39;s not like I don& #39;t know how to use git or, you know, Google. But holy crap I can do rebases with one click, you know? Show me the downside??
I still use @Panic & #39;s Coda to edit files on remote servers when needed. Why tf would I ssh into a thing and then pick one of three awful options for text editing when I could just like look at a list of files in a normal list view, click on one, edit it like normal, then hit ⌘S?
