Why not using git gui/gitk ? Thay are the official graphical interface for git and they works perfectly on linux, macos and windows.

I support the git-gui and gitk pair of UI's.

I find that `gitk` (or any of the equivalent commit graph viewers) to be quite important for beginners to see how the repository is/can be structured with branches, merges and remotes, which is all very different to classical configuration management with it's 'single blessed master' item view.

It's all very easy to use the `git-gui` to select files, hunks, and lines into commits with nice messages in quick succession (etc.), but it's easy to miss the complete mind-shift that comes from the Git weltanschauung change. It can take a while for that change to sink in, so a good viewer helps.

    Hi

    I am a Linux user and rely on the command line for dealing wit git.
    However my students a graphical require a graphical interface. Two
    alternatives I found

        1. Sourcetree (that I installed on a MacBook without any trouble),
           however it seems that if you use MS Windows
           (https://www.sourcetreeapp.com/enterprise) you need a bitbucket
           account to use it. However here the idea is to install it on PC
           that are available to all students and don't have single
    user. So
           I am not sure what is the best method to install sourcetree in
           such an environment. Any advice is very welcome.

        2. https://tortoisegit.org/download: I am a bit acquainted with
           tortoisehg on linux, but have not idea about it on MS Windows.
           Any comments?

    Thanks and regards
