God I wish I understood GIT. The screenshot here doesn't help me in any way. Tempted to stick with gitx. What is the advantage of this software?

Sign up for a github account. It's free and they have help. If you're on Windows, I've been told TortoiseGit is good.

I like github too. It's very understandable - I find it better than the app shown here - and the help is great.

I'm with you, and I do understand Git fairly well. The UI is pretty opaque for non-VCS/Git users.

at first glance, I prefer GitX, as it allows faster and more fine-grained staging and commit.

the only feature this seems to have over GitX is push/pull.

my typical usage is GitX for commits and history browsing and the shell for everything else.

+1 And I highly encourage everyone to get familiar with the command line first.
