At risk of starting a flamewar, Nancy, have you thought about switching away from Windows? Development workflows seem so much cleaner on *nix systems.<div><br></div><div>I guess you could also use cygwin and if I&#39;m not mistaken, there&#39;s a Windows Git binary floating around somewhere.</div>

<p>Learning the CLI for the basics first is really useful for understanding how git works. </p>

<div><a href="http://progit.org/book/" target="_blank"></a>Chapter 2 starts getting you used to your everyday workings, and particularly explains the cool &quot;staging&quot; 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.</div>
