Command line prowess is not the be all and end all of competency. Some people like to have less of an overhead in brain cycles when doing menial/repetitive tasks (like dealing with source control) so that they can actually get on with real work.

Personally, I think git is overcomplicated. Powerful, yes, but still ridiculously complicated, but that's the price you pay for all that power and flexibility. If a GUI can make many of the simple tasks easier and quicker then I'll always opt for that; I'll drop down to the command line when I need to deal with more complicated scenarios.
