Re:Magit, the magical Git interface (2017) by trey-jones on Friday October 22, 2021 @10:27AM (#28957639)
For your everyday stage->commit->pull->push I think magit is damn near perfect. Staging individual files, or even individual blocks is simple and not verbose (unlike cli equivalents). Picking out eg. problems with my gitignore I find to be easier while looking at the magit status page as well. I think conflict resolution also bears looking at.

For other things... you'd have to ask somebody else. I generally do any type of branching or merging or similar using the git cli, and that's part of the beauty of magit: she doesn't care when I cheat on her that way.
