Probably best Git client for Mac, but not perfect.

This is definitely the best git frontend. Switching repositories quickly, creating new or cloning remote ones all that is no hassle anymore. And there are many more features. The interface is quite good, sometimes it could be a bit more intuitive though.
Ok, Tower is a little pricey but since it saves so much time it's well worth it.

Wonderful app - good interface, stable, and feature-full. I have to agree with the other posters, however, that the pricing makes it a deal breaker for me. Compare with GitBox (currently $20), and SourceTree (currently FREE), and the $60 tag seems to be out-of-touch with the market.

In fact, Gitbox is currently only $9.99 -- there's a promotion going on. I guess I'm going to buy it myself...

With 1.2.0, nice colourful toolbar icons have changed to ugly Grey ones :(

Unfortunately the price is a big hangup in my opinion. Let's see a 2.0 before they charge this amount for the app and have some solid community input and further fleshing out of features / requests after real usage by actual users.

The developers have been continually releasing new features, updates, and bug fixes in the year that this app has been out. 2.0 is only a number. I've been using Tower since it was in beta, and I'm still *very* happy with my purchase.

Tower is a well-designed product with excellent usability and a very attractive interface. It's easy to set up projects, clone them, do all the usual stuff, but it offers nothing over the command line, especially for the rather high price. I can't see a way for any developers to justify these prices unless they start adding features that actually improve and aid the workflow. A good start would be to, say, add git-flow support.

Money aside, this is a fine program and the developers were quite responsive during the beta. I am reverting, however, to SmartGit.

Further to that comment, I decided to buy the app while I could still get a discount, on the basis that their responsiveness means that I might be able to persuade them to support a git-flow workflow right in Tower.

I use Tower to manage a world-wide group of developers. It makes it easy to check what was done by each person on a daily basis. Great UI and easy for new developers to use.

Being reasonably new to GIT and having tried a few tools each time resorting back to the terminal, I have to say Tower really impresses me.
