In their own words

Cmder

Cmder is a free, portable console emulator package for Windows. It uses ConEmu with Clink enhancements, a Monokai color scheme, and a custom prompt layout. Tabs can run cmd.exe, PowerShell, Bash, and Mintty shells. The package supports split panes, a scripting API, and SSH. Settings, aliases, and history can travel with Cmder on a USB stick or in the cloud. The Full edition includes Git for Windows and its Unix commands in PATH; Mini excludes vendored Git binaries. Aliases are configured with the alias command and stored in config/aliases, while executable files placed in bin are added to PATH. Registering with /REGISTER ALL adds a “Cmder Here” option to File Explorer. The documentation describes starting the vendored SSH agent with start-ssh-agent. Mini is a roughly 7.8MB download; Full is about 100MB or 52MB as a 7z archive. The project is licensed under MIT.

gitsome

gitsome is a free Git and GitHub command-line interface intended to make Git and shell work easier. It includes 29 GitHub-integrated commands that work across shells. Its optional shell adds autocomplete and interactive help for Git commands, options, branches, tags, Git-Extras, and GitHub integration commands. It can also suggest shell commands, files, directories, environment variables, man pages, and Python. Fish-style suggestions and a Python REPL through xonsh are available, alongside command history and customizable ANSI highlighting. gitsome integrates with GitHub and GitHub Enterprise and can be used with Git-Extras and hub commands. It is distributed through PyPI for pip3 installation and can also run in Docker. The listed operating systems are macOS, Linux, Unix, and Windows. GitHub integration may require account credentials, two-factor authentication, a personal access token, or other connection details. The README lists Python 3.4 through 3.7 as supported and says xonsh does not support Python 2.x. On Windows, gh user and gh me display text-only avatars. PyPI lists version 0.8.4, uploaded April 7, 2019, as the latest release.
