Robo 3T

I was using Robo 3T to manage the database when using terminal for GIT, now using SourceTree can i still use this to view connections locally or do i need another setup?

Hi Jonathan,

Sourcetree is a source control client for Git; it can open a terminal and allow you to run other commands. Robo 3T (Robomongo?) appears to be a dedicated GUI for MongoDB, that can open a terminal for you to run commands (like Git) as well; my guess is that they include more functionality for that particular shell experience.

My recommendation would be to use Sourcetree for Git interactions, and Robo 3T for Mongo explorations. It does require switching but hopefully we make it worth it 😃
