IntelliJ's git interface is basically the only way I can use git, or at the very least pull off anything other than the most standard tasks.

Its UI for resolving merge conflicts is so intuitive and powerful. You get 3 panels: local changes on the left, remote changes on the right, and merged in the middle. It's got colored highlighting going across from each of the side to the middle, showing where the changes want to go to, and you click arrows to accept/dismiss left or right, and sometimes it'll even have a suggestion for a way to take both of the changes (indicated by a magic wand). And you can also just type into the center editor if you want to not use either side, and manually rewrite the resolved change yourself, whether that be copy-pasting from each side or whatever you want to do.

It's saved me so many times, it's practically worth the cost of the entire IDE on its own.
