Yes, cygwin could seem to be an overhead, but msys is very minimalistic.

You can install msysgit with only one all-in-one installer which is ~ 8MB
in size.

Yes, there is TortoiseHg.

Actually my girlfriend still uses it for her document versioning (because
I've taught her to use hg, back when I was using hg myself), but our
experience shows that TortoiseHg has some problems (especially with e.g.
unicode comments), and there are situations in which it is just more
straightforward to use command line.

Being said all this, Git has Git Gui and gitk too -- which are Tk/Tcl based
tools to make commits, clone repos, graphically visualize history, etc..

My imho is that the quality of Git Gui and gitk is much supperiour compared
to TortoiseHg.

Just FYI,
Kirill.
