- - *qgit* (http://digilander.libero.it/mcostalba/)
- QGit is a git/StGit GUI viewer built on Qt/C++. QGit could be used
- to browse history and directory tree, view annotated files, commit
- changes cherry picking single files or applying patches.
- Currently it is the fastest and most feature rich among the Git
- viewers and commit tools.

Others
------
- - *(h)gct* (http://www.cyd.liu.se/users/~freku045/gct/)
-
- Commit Tool or (h)gct is a GUI enabled commit tool for Git and
- Mercurial (hg). It allows the user to view diffs, select which files
- to committed (or ignored / reverted) write commit messages and
- perform the commit itself.
-
- - *git.el* (contrib/)
-
- This is an Emacs interface for Git. The user interface is modelled on
- pcl-cvs. It has been developed on Emacs 21 and will probably need some
- tweaking to work on XEmacs.
