At risk of starting a flamewar, Nancy, have you thought about switching away from Windows? Development workflows seem so much cleaner on *nix systems. I guess you could also use cygwin and if I'm not mistaken, there's a Windows Git binary floating around somewhere.

Learning the CLI for the basics first is really useful for understanding how git works.
If you are on a mac and want a full featured gui, I recommend Source Tree. It seems to have the best usability and features.

To feel comfortable with Git, make this book your bible:
<http://progit.org/book/>Chapter 2 starts getting you used to your everyday workings, and particularly explains the cool "staging" concept (I wanna commit just a bit, then another bit...) which is one of the things that makes Git shine, apart from the fact that it is distributed.
Check out the beautiful "file status lifecycle" diagram at:

<http://progit.org/book/ch2-2.html>Read (and re-read, I often forget a whole bunch of stuff and conveniences) and you will start feeling comfy with Git in no time.
