I also found the git plugin [1] in the Sublime Text Package Control repository to be rather useful. The basic idea is similar to magit, with the (subjective) upside of avoiding the crazy Emacs hotkeys.
That said, since I discovered Spacemacs, I'm also enjoying using Magit - the "evil" control scheme for it is great, too.
magit is a marvelous piece of work indeed, and the thing that keeps me going back to Emacs every time I get curious about some other editor.
But yeah, I picked it up after quite some time working in Emacs, and the keybindings feel natural. Perhaps it would be very different for somebody new to Emacs.
Maybe it is of limited use for non-emacs users, but imho it's a fantastic way to use git with a perfect balance between making simple things very easy to do and allowing (almost) anything you can do with the CLI while providing excellent visual feedback.
