Aside from the other good GUIs out there, have you tried
git-cola?

http://cola.tuxfamily.org/

It's GPL and not too shabby.
The screenshots on the webpage are a bit out of date, though.
I should probably get to writing the release announcment and
updating the screenshots ;)

It probably also depends on your platform of choice.
I know some Windows users like explorer-integration, so stuff
like git-cheetah make a lot of sense for them.  I was a little
sad to see that the tortoise-git guys didn't get the joke
(who wants a tortoise when you have a cheetah?) and didn't
just work on cheetah instead, but hey, it's all good.

Another example: eclipse users like eclipse integration so for
them egit makes perfect sense.

Maybe that makes git-cola the poor man's smartgit?
If that's the case then it looks like the poor man is still
winning according to the feature matrix on the git wiki ;)
I don't know.. I haven't used smartgit, but if there are
any features that people are itching to have that git-cola
doesn't then feel free to throw it on the backlog:

At first glance, the gitk-like history widget in smartgit
is very nice.  I've been thinking about how to implement that in
PyQt for a while but haven't yet hammered it out.


Have fun,
