48 +I use Tower (bought it), but only for committing and fixing merge conflicts. I think Tower misses quite a bit of the flagship feature of GIT: branches. You can't see a branch tree graphically, like you can with gitX or even the command line (git log ---graph ---color, IIRC). But it's cool for committing. For everything else I use command line.
