This is a shameless announcement of my latest personal project; Git
Extensions. Git Extensions is a Tortoise-like windows shell extension for
git. Yesterday I finished version 0.9, the first stable release. I included
about all git commands I know about, so I think it is pretty complete but
I'm open to suggestions. 
 
It is written mostly in C#, except for shell extension part which is written
in C++. The project is open source, the sources can be found on GitHub. In
case there is someone interrested in the sources, be warned; the sources are
not very well documented yet and the solution is a still bit messy, I will
clean this up very soon. 
 
Main features
- Shell extensions
- Visual studio plugin
- Seperate git application
 
Features:
- Browse repository (incl. visual graph)
- Add files
- Apply patch
- Checkout branch/revision
- Cherry pick
- Create branch/tag
- Delete branch/tag
- Clone
- Commit
- Create (format) patch
- Init new repository
- Merge branches
- Pull
- Push
- Run mergetool
- Stash
- View differences
 
Information about the project and a installer package can be found here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gitextensions/
The installation requires msysgit to be installed AND git.exe to in the
system path.

ps.
I know there is a TortoiseGit project also, I just didn't know about that at
the time I started. If I knew about TortoiseGit, I probably never started
writing my own tool.
