Older releases are available and the Git source repository is on GitHub.
GitKraken is a Git GUI client for not only Mac, but also Windows and Linux. It's a visual UI for Git that’s not only beautiful, but is also a true time-saver for Git beginners and pros. GitKraken simplifies complicated commands into drag and drop actions. I adopted Git as my primary source control tool a couple of years ago, when I was using Windows as my primary (90%) desktop OS. Since then I’ve switched to 75% Mac OSX, but I still use Git on Windows for a few projects, and I get a lot of questions about Git on Windows. For git beginners or non-git users, the only pain will be setting up the SSH keys. Once you have done that and cloned your first repository, it will be straight-forward and you will never have to open the console. Yeah, Tower is legitimately the best GUI client I've ever used for Git, period. I try to live on the CLI though so I've kinda forced myself to learn more about Git and the myriad of commands, but Tower was most certainly the best set of training wheels I could ask for.
Latest source Release2.23.0 Release Notes (2019-08-16)GUI Clients
Git comes with built-in GUI tools (git-gui, gitk), but there are several third-party tools for users looking for a platform-specific experience.
Logos
Various Git logos in PNG (bitmap) and EPS (vector) formats are available for use in online and print projects.
Git via Git
If you already have Git installed, you can get the latest development version via Git itself:
git clone https://github.com/git/git
You can also always browse the current contents of the git repository using the web interface.

I'm looking at porting my projects to Git from SVN (I'm convinced that Git is worth the move) and I'm trying to come up with a set of tools to use for the project. I've googled around for some tools but I wasn't really impressed with what I found.
What visual tools are recommended for Git users on Mac OS X? What about Windows? (I have multiple development environments and I need git tooling in each one of them)

Windows has TortoiseGit. It is not as mature as TortoiseSVN, but I've been using it and it works well enough for my purposes.

EDIT [Dec 2014]: I'd also recommend looking at Dan's answer. Github's UI is probably the most mature/supported tool out there now (even if you don't use Github!)

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Tower for Mac OSX.

Git Homepage also has section about GUIs: http://git-scm.com/downloads/guis

GitGui comes with git. It has always worked great for me. Is there some problem you have with it?

For OSX I don't like Tower. I have had too many crashes and problems. On the other hand, Source Tree works very well. Albeit it requires a bit more understanding of git itself. IMO Tower is no Cornerstone. I wish Cornerstone would support GIT.

There is a native port of Git to Windows, called mysysgit.
If you use Eclipse, there's a Git client that hooks into that - egit.TortoiseGit is a standalone GUI client.Git#/GitSharp is a client for git for .NET.
Mac users will hopefully be able to provide some examples for MacOS.
Enjoy it!

Git extensions for Windows works great and integrates with Visual Studio (if you need it). I haven't tried TortoiseGit, but I've heard it's not quite ready.
On Mac, I've tried GitX and wasn't very impressed. It seems to missing many of the git commands and I have to use the terminal on a regular basis. There is another one called Gity, but it's very new and I have not tried it yet. It is free now, but I think that will end once it reaches 1.0.

For Windows, I recommend the GitHub for Windows client (which also works with other local and remote repositories, even though it's setup to work with Github by default). Frp unlocker all-in-one tool (2018) download for mac.
