One of the best free Git clients out there. Actively developed, has lots of features and, most importantly, it's fast and not bloated.

I was searching for free git GUI and git-cola is one of the best. It's lightweight, fast, it may lack some features, but still it can do most of the tasks that I need. Also it supports hotkeys.
