I can't imagine using a paid, closed-source git client when https://github.com/desktop/desktop and https://github.com/Murmele/Gittyup are both great. Maybe 10 years ago, but not now that open-source alternatives are so mature and feature-rich.
I use it along with Secretive[0] to keep GitHub SSH keys in my MacBook’s Secure Enclave and add a biometric prompt whenever pushing or pulling. All together it’s extremely smooth and unfussy.
I usually recommend SourceTree to them, not because it's particularly amazing, but it does enough while not breaking repos (as often).
This looks neat, but I don’t see anything off hand that will pull me away from my current git tower + kaleidoscope ~rut~ workflow. In particular, the drag & drop rebase support in tower is very convenient. Kaleidoscope is capable of all kinds of diffing but the text conflict resolution is probably the feature that I use the most.
I used to use tower, but I switched to fork for two reasons - it was more performant with my work monorepo, and fork's a one time payment and tower's an annual subscription (and more expensive). I'm not affiliated with them at all but I'm a happy customer and recommend you give it a shot; they have a free trial.
Fork, aka the footgun git UI that repeatedly causes me to lose productive time to help junior devs unmangle their local repos. I usually recommend SourceTree to them, not because it's particularly amazing, but it does enough while not breaking repos (as often).
These pulled me away from Sourcetree, but my experience with Fork is limited to early versions (ca. 2016/17).
