Personally, I really like being able to stage/unstage blocks of code or even individual lines in a GUI, if I've done some refactoring and added new logic at the same time, but want those in separate commits.
Aside from that, I really like working in a GUI, looking at the commit graphs, easily switching between any number of branches and merges being a right click away.
I actually ended up paying for GitKraken because it also makes managing multiple accounts (personal vs work) as easy as choosing what I want from a drop-down, as well as includes workspace functionality to group multiple repos together.
Before than, using SourceTree or Git Cola was also decent. Just feels like one of those things that are convenient with a GUI, except I enjoy standalone tools for that more than most IDE integrations.
