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

The switch isn't being thrown until the 24th ;)

I would highly recommend learning the CLI git interface in place of TortoiseGit. 
Once you know the basics, it's not that scary, and it's incredibly powerful. 
That said, it's your call. 


The Git Community Book at http://book.git-scm.com/index.html is a great 
resource, whether you use the command line or a GUI. It is command-line focused, 
but regardless of your chosen interface, it provides a very useful understanding 
of how Git works under the cover. Understanding these concepts will go a long 
ways to helping you understand what exactly the various buttons or commands do 
to your repository.
