"the interviewer's demeanor turned sour" Weird. I haven't worked in a team where people used the command line for bread-and-butter source control since 1996 or so. IME it's harder (not impossible, but harder) to screw things up with fat fingers using a GUI, and pretty much every time you use SCM you're going to want a good diff view anyway. (We tend to do basic paired code review at commit time.) It's kind of tragic; I don't think anyone would describe the git UI in flattering terms, but now that it's become a 'pons asinorum' for geek machismo it's almost impossible to replace it. And I agree, SourceTree is lovely.
