For someone with relative basic requirements I would recommend an emacs centric
solution:

http://zagadka.vm.bytemark.co.uk/magit/magit.html

or if using Emacs23 use the builtin Version Control which includes GIT
and is well documented in the standard documentation.

Only one command to remember (give or take)  : C-x v v

If not using 23 then I'm pretty sure it's once eLisp file and a require
away regardless.

This gives a nice overview:
