The Git UI built into all Jetbrains products (Pycharm, IntelliJ, etc) is fantastic and does everything you’d need.

Why would you pay for something separate?

I'm not very familiar with how Jetbrains products handle Git — if it has everything you're looking for, I understand it can be a hard sell.

Most of our users enjoy Tower's ease of use, with features such as drag and drop to perform most tasks (including rebasing, cherry-picking, etc) or the possibility to undo pretty much everything (probably my favorite feature: https://www.git-tower.com/features/undo/mac). Many complex Git actions (e.g.: branch comparison or solving merging conflicts) are very simple to perform in Tower.

If you ever find the time, I suggest you give our trial version a shot!

Maybe Java people like it because it feels very Java-like, but that's a huge downside to me for any other language. I can't stand using Pycharm. So heavy weight, slow, bloated, ugly. Reminds me of using Eclipse.
