add Git support
I would like to use Cornerstone with Git. I use SVN at work, for all my personal projects I moved to Git.

For those suggesting Tower for Git ... well, I do use Tower for Git. However, It's no Cornerstone is it? Tower could be Cornerstone in three years ... Cornerstone could have Cornerstone Git in 1.5 years. I *need* Cornerstone Git right-freaking-now.

Create a new app for git!
Why? With Cornerstone I open it up, bap, bap, done. No need to drop to the shell unless I know I'm doing something odd with Subversion. The fact that its functionality is "obvious" makes it a pleasure to work with.
I've used Tower, SourceTree, and SmartGit. On every one of them (1) I still have to drop to the shell multiple times a day for simple stuff and (2) I switch between programs depending on what I want to do. Each has its strengths, but none encompasses git so completely the way that Cornerstone encompasses Subversion.
(Don't say get a clue and learn bash. I'm fluent with the command line,having started programming in the late '70s.)

This should be a separate application. Use Tower for git (http://www.git-tower.com/).

Please do this!

definitely a separate app - you can't compare git to subversion and the app needs to reflect that.. it would be a new design from the ground up which is why zennaware is probably shying away for now..
however, github just released a basic (but beautiful) git client for osx:
http://mac.github.com/makes life a lot easier :)

It does not much matter if it's the same app or a different one. I'd just leave that up to the developers to determine which is more maintainable... I'm looking to purchase a GIT client, so it would be fine to have a separate app. Maybe a purchase options git only, svn only, or a package deal to get both...
The bottom line for me is I've yet to find a GIT client that matches the Cornerstone goodness.. also, I'm getting desperate for a GIT client, since the company I now work for uses it for their standard.. one way or another I'm purchasing an app... I'd like to hear if there is a git client on the roadmap from Zennaware, because I'd wait for it...

I don't think I would like to have Git andSVN supported in the same product, but a Cornerstone-quality Git client would be gold.

A separate Git app would be great!

I've been testing some of the Git apps, but as other people are saying, none of them are as polished as Cornerstone.
A separate app would work for me.

Oh, and as a separate app.

Yes, good lord, this would be so awesome!

There are now very good options for git repos on the mac. Still i would love to have something as polished as Cornerstone for managing. I have bought your app, since then moved all my repos to Git, i would buy another version of Cornerstone with git support.

The best solution for SVN could be also the best one for Git. It's in your hands.

I'd be ok with a separate app for Git (yeah, I'd even pay for it), as long as it has similar UX goodness as cornerstone.

Either as a separate app (yes, I'd pay again for that) or integrated in Cornerstone, but the momentum is with Git, and I want a Git GUI with the sensibilities of Zennaware.

yeah, we need this in RoR we use Git as teh defacto and would like to use cornerstone.

I would love to see git implemented in its own modality within cornerstone. This would make it an invaluable development tool, and one I can get my artists to use too.

Nothing more to say, I would like to get Git support on Cornerstone.

i'd also like to see Git support in a app from Zennaware... :)

Gitti by my findings is by far the best git gui app there is: http://www.gittiapp.com/
But these days, I just use command line - takes a long while to learn, but you get use to it :-)
