( on teamgit side its lack of devtime :( thats holding it back) On the other hand a generic Qt/Gtk lib to interface with cli's would be nice. In any event i do not plan to switch to a library. Mainly because there is no value add (barring performance). And of-course, i already worked so hard to interface with the cli :D. > Unfortunately in current situation no gui really supports all I would need to > get my colleagues at work to accept git (they are somewhat obsessed with > plugin to Visual Studio and explorer and generally avoiding command line). > I started working on VS plugin some time ago, but I feel like a bit more > reuse would be in order.
