I had a pretty negative experience with git when uDig was considering the transition. It was functional but not the kind of thing I could use in a training course with a straight face (as it basically required a cygwin shell).
It seems there are some good front ends for GIT now; and I noticed http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/ offering a fork for windows. Still the initial impression was bad enough that I was going to look a bit more into Mercurial when the time came.
