"For everyday use, I am more comfortable using the command line interface, rather than using SourceTree."

"There can be conflict issues when two developers work on the same file or line of code, and it would be great to see that improved, possibly with an AI solution."

"The solution could have better support for the Markdown language."
"There is a bit of a learning curve."
"It would be better if the amount of storage were increased."
