We mainly use Git-Extensions
http://code.google.com/p/gitextensions/
  + openSSH and it works great. You can also
interchange both, Git-Extension and CLI, on the same project. (this 
wasn't the case with SVN + TortoiseSVN)

I personally prefer the CLI, you know what you are doing, but most of 
the Windows-dev-folks like to use a GUI.
