Try TortoiseGit. It's like TortoiseSVN, but for Git.



Yes, but you still have to install MSysGit or whatever, which is a ridiculously huge download just to do version control requests. Plus, running the commands to generate public and private keys and all that junk is super counter-intuitive, and the default steps recommended on GitHub won't work on my work machine, as Cygwin can't write to the location it wants to create the key files, and once I got to that point, I just decided to use HG.


msysgit is like 18mb download, you sure you didn't download the full source tree?

You don't need to use SSH either, Github (and bitbucket) supports https.
