The most valuable feature is the ability to fix a broken repository merge.

For me, the branches ' graph was the most valuable feature of Atlassian SourceTree. I often used the terminal, but during a demo, my boss preferred I not switch to the terminal view. SourceTree's graphical interface for managing branches was handy for that. The demo involved making changes, committing them, pushing to the CI/CD tool, running the pipeline, and seeing the integration, all within about twenty minutes.

The interface is very good and is easy to use. It tells you when you've committed, when you've uploaded, and gives you the differences.

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