Yes, I certainly didn't mean that the tool was bad, I use VS and have recently switched to the github extension inside the editor from using a combo of GitHub Desktop (really easy to use, but also incredibly feature lacking, including the new version) and GitTortoise (pretty good but annoyingly reliant on right-clicking in explorer).

I generally much prefer GUIs over command lines as I'm lazy and have a bad memory, so anything off the beaten path involves loads of unnecessary googling to remind me of the right invocation to the CLI gods.

I'd avoided using it for so long because of bad memories of using TFS, but I must admit it's pretty good for generally using git, with only a few minor UI gripes. I must admit I haven't had to do a merge yet because I'm flying solo on my newest project, which is usually the big test.
