That's a pretty bold claim. Do you have any data behind it?

It's only anecdotal but in my experience it's almost the exact opposite; having worked in multiples of both MSFT and non-MSFT shops it seems like almost every one uses a UI to handle git. I don't blame them; it's not always easy visualizing all of the changes (in my opinion at least) just through a terminal window.

Sadly no, it was a terribly anecdotal claim with no official evidence to back it up. I guess the point behind my claim is what do you mean by "working with git"? To me it is about checking code in, diffing, etc... which most people I've ever worked with do from the terminal. Occasionally I'll see folks want a gui for diffs (not really surprising since it's kinda fugly from terminal), but do most of the "work" from term.

So I suppose I shall digress and admit I committed a total failure at an internet statement on a decently technical forum.

in the words of Homer....

doh!
