GitX also requires a fairly recent Git, version 1.6.0 and higher are all supported. After starting GitX, you can install the command-line tool through the menu (GitX->Enable Terminal Usage). This will install a “gitx” binary in /usr/local/bin. Detailed history viewer, nice commit GUI, allowing hunk- and line-wise staging. Fast workflow, explore tree of any revision, nice Aqua interface, paste commits to gist.github.com, QuickLook integration.
