But to be honest, I don't find git-svn to be too bad. But than again, I don't have commit access. - Which tools are available for the DVCS? Portability? Decent GUIs? > I really like to use something like TortoiseSVN for the more complex > tasks which aren't easy to perform on the command line, or require > remembering commands that you only need once in a blue moon. > I personally don't care whether there is a good tool set for windows or > linux, but there needs to be one for at least one of them, ideally both. Most git users as far as I can tell (including myself), like the command line toolchain more than GUIs. But there are a few of them: Eclipse and Visual Studio both have git plugins. I haven't tried eclipse, but visual studio's plugin is decent. QtCreator also has built in git support. There's also standalone git gui's, such as, git gui, and gitk. Although they both look admittedly ugly. Several OS X users seem to love gitx. There are still others you can try, so I will refer you to this Stack Overflow question for more details: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1516720/git-gui-client-for-linux > This selection of questions is actually very symptomatic of why I do > *not* want to switch to git.
