Hey, at least it was 2 × the speed of sound, and not 2 × the speed of light. 
Now try asking it how many countries in Africa start with the letter "K":
Human:
Did you know that there is no country in Africa that starts with the letter "k"?
ChatGPT:
Yes, that's correct! While there are 54 recognized countries in Africa, none of them begin with the letter "K". The closest is Kenya, which starts with a "K" sound, but is actually spelled with a "K" sound. It's always interesting to learn new trivia facts like this.

Soon I will have to start working with a team that have to start using GIT for the first time.
I am an external programmer (currently I don't have any kind of access to their server), they will want to have the source code in their local server repository.
Multiple programmers must work in the same project at once.
It's way too much to learn the console commands now and a GUI interface will be better.
It must be free, by now they don't plan to use it except for the coming projects (6 or 8 months max).
It must be GIT, as the language/environment we use accept mostly that one foundation server or subversion, but we need it to be free and to have a local vs remote repositories.
I've seen SourceTree and TortoiseGit as good candidates, but... what would you all recommend?
As always, thank you all!

I have used TortoiseGIT for many years and it is very easy to use.
I also use a very neat product that is free, I believe it's still free called GITKracken[^].
It is a visual solution that is very sophisticated!
I don't think before I open my mouth, I like to be as surprised a everyone else.

GitKraken is not free and never was.
If you're using it professionally you need a license.
The free version can only work with public repos anyway.

I use SourceTree.
However, the Visual Studio Git tools have become better too so I've been using it more often lately.
I prefer SourceTree over Visual Studio because I can use it for multiple projects at once in neatly organized tabs and it's not the software I write code in, so my code windows don't get messed up when using SourceTree.

Nice utility, should probably add to free tools.

I've used TortoiseGIT most of the time.
I tried different standalone app (gitkraken ... ) and always got back to TortoiseGIT.

I have always used TortoiseSVN not the GIT, I now am curious...

I use Got Extensions as there is no registration BS.

|
|
|

I've used SourceTree to manage a legacy project (pre-Visual Studio integration with git). It does a decent job, but I don't like the fact that later versions require registration with Atlassian.
So far, Atlassian has been good about not sending me spam, but who knows...

As mentioned by a few other members, git extensions is a no BS Git interface. I switched from VSTS 2 years ago and this software made that transition so smooth. It is just easy.

I use TortoiseGit and also tools provided by VSCode and Visual Studio. The VSCode/Visual Studio tools are quite OK for working within a repo but I like Tortoise "bird's eye" view of all repos. Also move/rename operations are very convenient in ToritoiseGit (right-click drag).

That one. Think I tried SourceTree long time ago and it was annoying for some reason.
Now not so much a preference but rather what I am used to.
I do use the command line for a number of things.
