		smusamashah on Nov 30, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: I don't know why so many devs avoid a GUI for Git Intellij has built in Git GUI which has lots of features of other commercial dedicated tools. Features I use include selecting and committing individual lines where needed, rearranging and squashing commits all within easy ui.

Interestingly i also do not use it and still prefer CLI, while the rest of intellij is my daily driver.

It almost seems like, i have a model of git in my head and these GUIs have another model in mind. And it does not match.
