Episode Synopsis


Do you prefer using Git on the command-line or with a GUI? That's what I'm keen to find out in this episode of the podcast. Why? Because I’m an avid Git command-line user, and have been for over 10 years! But, recently, I’ve been experimenting with some of the GUI tools available for Git to see if if I’m missing out on anything, and how the experience differs from the command line.In this episode, I share with you what it's like using Git Tower, and Git GUIs in general, as a long-time command-line user, and some of the pros and cons of each approach.Links from the episodeGit Tower (available for macOS and Windows)Sourcetree by AtlassianGit-SCM.comGit GUIsWant to grow your knowledge further?Check out the books below, where you can grow your web development skills in a very focused, very hands-on way.Deploy with Docker ComposeMezzio EssentialsHosted and produced in Bundaberg by: Matthew Setter.Website: https://matthewsetter.com.Follow me on: LinkedIn.If you like the podcast, and want to support it, how about buying me a coffee?
