For me, the best things about Magit are:

- speed (most Git commands are at most 2 keystrokes away, as are more
  parameters - and I don't need to remember the terrible CLI syntax)

- interactivity (Magit basically displays a kind of mix of "git status"
  and "git diff", and most things displayed are interactive - you can
  e.g. stage a part of a diff by putting a region on it and pressing
  `s').

Hth,
