    Probably the best FOSS alternative for Linux. Not as fancy in terms of GUI, but still easy to use and it's much faster.

    A lightweight, useful program. The UI isn't particularly pretty but it does what it's supposed to. Furthermore, it allows committing only specific lines, which is an important feature for me. Note that if you want to use it with GitHub, you'll want to learn how to enable SSH authentication: see https://github.com/git-cola/git-cola/issues/1112#issuecomment-782738748 for instructions.

    UI confusing and niceties like folder browse are missing.
