I currently use a third-party git GUI (GitKraken atm) but I also use jetbrains products, am I missing out by not using the integrated git functionality? If so, is there a tutorial or guide you could recommend, or is it all fairly self-explanatory?


The Jetbrains git interface is really quite good. For me the magic is the general combination of git and local history. The search is good and the diffing and jump-to-source from those. The changelist handling is pretty good too.

I think a quick skim of the available features in the docs would probably give a good overview. Then poking around.


Jetbrains Git integration is quite self-explanatory - if you're already using GitKraken, you're not missing out much except being able to do it from your IDE instead of another tool. Maybe conflicts are a tad easier due to same syntax highlighting style and ability to edit on the go.
