Is > that not so? Hmm. hg has a browser (hgk). Its a direct port of gitk. I don't see a GUI otherwise, such as qgit or git-gui. They do however have a Windows installer. Monotone has mtsh and guitone. Neither appear to be as far along as say qgit or even git-gui, which isn't that far along at all. So I guess you are right. Git's situation is better than that of hg or Monotone. Now if only I can finish everything I want to put into git-gui, and get it included as part of the core Git distribution. :) --
