I ask because I like console, but at the same time have difficulties remembering all the commands. I'd like to try a GUI that is comfortable to use with only a keyboard.

My inbox got fediversized, fantastic feeling.

I've tried a lot and settled with vim-fugitive. If you know and like Vim-keybindings it's probably the best choice out there.

Sad that I had to scroll so far to see Fugitive mentioned. It is so good it should be illegal. But seriously, if you're a vim user you really should give it a shot. It's a perfect blend of vim and shell. Also it's developed by the legendary tpope, that oughta be enough of an argument to try it out.
