![]() I am not a ultra fast coder by any means, but after using Coda with a couple of projects open at one time, I noticed a speed and performance hit that started to affect my work. Although purists will still look to the command line, it is the perfect way to manage your repositories inside your code editor. PHPStorm makes it easy to commit, push, pull, and manage branches. It has complete support for Git, SVN and other version control systems. The answer was there in front of me inside PHPStorm. ![]() Again not feeling totally comfortable managing Git via the command line I looked at Git clients that were available.

Up until 2009 BM (Before Mac) I used NotePad++ which is a great, lightweight text editor with FTP functionality.
