What is your preferred version control software and what additional features do you wish it had?
As to which git client to use, I highly recommend Tower -- if you want a free option then Gittyup is pretty good.

nope, they are just stating fork is good. Which honestly, fork doesn't seem that great. https://github.com/Murmele/Gittyup is what I recommend if you want to support open source. Gitkraken if you don't mind paying and have the patience to deal with electron.
