Do the devs already know git, or will it be a new experience for them? No matter what tool(s) you use, learning to use git effectively will be the hardest part.

I use TortoiseGit integrated into Windows Explorer for most stuff, and drop down to the command line in the odd situation where it's needed. I can't give much feedback about the server side, I'm using GitHub.
- johnsto19 16y agoI am pleased to see TortoiseGit, does it have any big issues? I remember hearing about it a while ago being very "beta" software.
- mullr 16y agoI used it about 6 months ago but ended up uninstalling it; it had a nasty habit of locking my git repo when I needed it and then crashing. Haven't used it since.
- dmethvin 16y agoTortoiseGit has been working fine for me, no crashes or problems. They've done a pretty good job of taking the most common scenarios and making them easy to do, even for a Windows user. (And I say that as a Windows user:)
- aidenn0 16y agoLet me know how that is. I know someone who tried it about a year ago, and it caused explorer to crash regularly.
- barrydahlberg 16y agoMoving from SVN to a simple pull, modify, push model is pretty straight forward. Learning git properly is tricky.
