I ask because I like console, but at the same time have difficulties remembering all the commands. I’d like to try a GUI that is comfortable to use with only a keyboard.

My inbox got fediversized, fantastic feeling.

    I use Github Desktop but am looking to start moving toward CLI soon for this reason; though to be honest, I only know it’s not good practice and don’t know the reason why. What kind of issues can happen in a team environment using it?

      The CLI and probably other more advanced guis are going to give you the option to:

      • bisect: very useful for debugging. Like definitely check it out.
      • rebase: excellent for clean commits. I use it all the time to squash commits together
      • diff arbitrary branches and commits. Super useful for debugging.
      • cherry pick: useful to apply a commit from a different branch or remote
      • Apply: I use it to pass around patches for things for testing / debugging.

      That’s just off the top of my head and also stuff that you can learn on the job. Good to know it exists though. I still use a “gui” (fugitive for vim) for simple tasks, like staging files 🙂

        For me, I don’t think I could survive without git stash, I use it daily for various reasons (e.g. for validating a small bug fix, git stash & git stash pop lets me attempt to reproduce the issue both with and without a correction). The one downside with the CLI stash command is that it’s very easy to forget things in stash though, but I don’t think GUIs generally support stashing?

        Another one I find myself doing quite often is git checkout BRANCH – PATH, to pull specific versions of files between branches.
