if select TortoiseGit => Switch/Checkout, I can switch to any branch to work on for a project.

I use that functionality often, despite the improved Git handling of Visual Studio I still prefer to use TortoiseGit.
For new users however TortoiseGit might be a bit more difficult to get started with.

Learning curve might be a factor, but I still prefer to give more importance, what will be more efficient once I already learned how to use the tool.

I spent time on and off for few months to test all features on tortoiseGit.
Now I start to use it for my personal projects.

I use the Git tools/functionality within Visual Studio 2022. It's all I need really. Integrates nicely with DevOps Git repos.
Last time I used Tortoise was TortoiseSVN I think about 7-10 years ago, maybe longer.
Glad to see they have a Git version now for those that like that.

Not to sound like that guy (but to sound like that guy)... You can do that with the CLI too.
I used to use TortoiseGit exclusively. Then I did a couple jobs where I had to work on a Mac. I only had to use Linux professionally twice, but being on a Mac for years without my trusty TortoiseGit... was no bueno. So, finally learned the CLI and it matters not which platform you're on it's still the same.
About the only thing CLI doesn't do as well is help spellcheck commits. You can still use external diff tools, etc. for everything else so zero is lost.
Anywho, it's worth learning the basics at least, should you find yourself on a different machine, remote container, etc.

If I hear someone use "X" as an object, verb or subject, I will tell them to "X" themselves.

and Tweet is sooooo much better. not. 
Both terms are silly and foolish. The whole things is silly and foolish.
To think, that after thousands of years of existence and evolution, humankind has come to Tweets and X's.
Shoot me now.

Twitter -> tweet --< twit. and we all know the definition of twit.
As I said, the entire thing is silly.

The "X" is "Xmas" is the Greek letter chi. "Christ" in Greek is "Χριστός."

I thought "tweet(ing)" was juvenile from day one, and it has never crossed my lips.

I kinda liked "tweet" because it made light of the whole social media scene. I say tweet without shame.

Change for the sake of change. No substance, no practical use. It's a perfect metaphor for Twatter.

FWIW, here's a great X...at least I like it! 
Ineresting note: the album was funded by pre-orders. Those who pre-ordered have the honor of hearing their names in one of the tracks. IMHO, a great album cover to cover.

Too right. I only came here to check the syntax for a connection string. 14 years later I'm still trying to finish The Lounge, let alone work through Articles...

I've been with CP for over 20 year snow and it's a great place and about as social as I get.
No Twitter, no Faceslap (or whatever it's called now), no Instagram, no TikTok, no SnapChat (don't even know what the hell it is).
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

People mentioning how long they've been here made me lookup my profile.
I thought it was about 10, but it's actually approaching 17 years. Doesn't time fly...

Same here, 19 years... doesn't seem possible...
