Using a CLI on Windoze is a pain - and, yes, there are a few of us misguided folks who use Windows.

I'm on Windows, too. TortoiseGit works nicely so far, but of course, you need to understand git basics/workflows first. Also had troubles understanding it at the beginning.
As an alternative to TortoiseGit you might try SmartGit [1], but needless to say it's a huge difference if you're used to working from within Windows Explorer.

I'm also on Windows and I've used TortoiseGit, SmartGit and "vanilla" Git. Both Tortoise and SmartGit are _great_ tools and do the work _very_ well. But I must agree with everyone that already told you that you _need_ to know the basics in order to use those correctly. That being said, if I had to choose between Tortoise and SmartGit *today*, I would kept with SmartGit, since the last time I tested Tortoise (Jan 2010) it wasn't working very well. But I'm giving it a new try and it seems to be working fine so far. davi -- davi
