Or use mercurial with tortoisehg (note:when I switched from cvs to 
mercurial, git was not available for windows, while mercurial was 
already stable and multi-platform. I cannot claim I understand mercurial 
fully, but at least I can use it for basic tasks with no surprises, 
while my experience with git is like https://xkcd.com/1597/)

$ LC_ALL=C git gui
git: 'gui' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

Did you mean one of these?
         gc
         grep
         init
         pull
         push
