I just need a GUI or some sort of visual reference. I have trouble picturing what exactly is going on with each variant of the command. I've been able to fuddle through it every time I do some programming, and when I used Android Studio there were some GUI tools to use but otherwise I always get so confused. I think using IDEs would help in other projects but that's a thing that keeps me from doing programming projects on the regular.

Yea my take with git for a while is that it is a naturally GUI oriented app/program much like text editors (who uses ed any more?), however much you’re a CLI only person.

I don't get that at all, to me using a GUI just gets in the way while on the CLI I can do whatever I want in a usually straightforward way.

Yeah, I mostly use plain git log but on occasion
