You don't even need git at that point. I don't understand why using git if you want a GUI... at this point, put the source code on the company fileserver and adopt "zip versioning", i.e. when you do a new release create an archive named "project-X.Y.z.zip" and archive it on the fileserver. If you need to work on another branch copy the source code directory. Why bother at this point?
I don't understand people that wants to use git but they want do to so with a GUI that abstract everything that git was created to address, and they limit themself to write some code, commit and push. You are not gaining any benefit in using git this way, you are only wasting time to me.
If you choose to adopt git, you learn how to use it, and so you learn the commands (it's not that much effort). In my experience GUI always created problems, especially if someone in a team uses a GUI that creates junk in the repository (like 100 useless merge commits created automatically for things that shouldn't really have been a merge that make git log unreadable...).
Also people that uses GUI typically when they have a problem that the GUI doesn't know how to solve (because they typically implement the basic things and if something goes wrong they can't help you) just deletes the whole repo and clones it again, or worse they try to fix it by pressing random buttons in the GUI and put the repo in a shitty state so another coworker that knows how to use git has to waste his time cleaning up the crap that the fantastic git GUI made.
And I'm not saying that you shouldn't 100% use GUIs. I use the one of VSCode for doing simple things like creating commits, switching branches, and stuff like that. For advanced features like merge, cherry pick, rebase, whatever I use the CLI, I find it more practical.
