Yes, I respect that. I guess I wrote this app for the people who don't use Emacs and/or Vim on a regular basis, but still enjoy using git on the command line, like my self... I might have to check out magit though to see if there are some ideas I could steal. :) Any functionality/workflow in particular that works better with magit?

Even if you don't use Emacs regularly, using Magit just for git operations might be worth it. Just have an Emacs config ready with Magit installed and use that as your "git user interface".

Every git operation I've done is effortless with Magit: interactive rebase, selective staging (line based, not just hunk based), cherry picking, reordering commits and squashing, creating/pushing to/deleting local/remote branches, viewing graphical branch log, .. (list goes on).
