I just used whatever my company would provide, and since I changed company quite a bit, and SVC software with it, I never really learned anything beyond add, commit, push/pull (seriously) for the last 18 years. Then this winter they asked me to teach advanced git, so I went ahead and learnt all the fancy commands and I'm thoroughly enjoying the CLI with command completion.
