We're using SourceTree but either it needs a lot of configuration we can't figure out or it just plain sucks. Well it might suck, or it might not depending on your point of view but I'm pretty sure you can do anything you need to with git, after all, it's the tool used to manage the Linux kernel source and there are probably dozens if not hundreds of contributors to that. I can't say I've found the canonical git documentation. This link https://progit.org/ points to the docs I'm currently using. I only use the Linux terminal CLI I have to admit, fancy GUI interfaces don't *always* make things clearer/easier to use, at least not for me. -- Laughing Spam Fritter
