All this talk about switching to git brings up one important question for me, and I suspect others..
Given all the various git-flow, git-this, git-that, git-whatever, tools that are getting mentioned.. What is the process for a user that wants to do their development, including version control, like? Specifically what does an:
* Eclipse user do? * Xcode user do? * VIsualStudio user do?

I ask because I'm really tired of learning yet more command lines tools at this stage in my life. And even though all GUI tools have drawbacks they do have the advantage that they condense the workflow usages to something understandable. And I would be really hard pressed to use any new version control system that I can't use a GUI. And preferably an integrated GUI.
One of the pluses for Git is that the community is so active. That includes integration with just about anything that a version control system can be integrated with. --Beman
