Because of huge number of Git GUIs and tools instead of providing a long list of tools to choose from, I went for free-form question:

  === 13. List git tools that you use (optional) ===
  (free form, essay)

  Description:
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~
  Please include only frontends, interfaces and tools that have support
  for Git (so e.g. EGit applies, but Eclipse doesn't).

  Please either use comma separated list of tools, or put each tool in a
  separate line.  That would make analysis of answers simpler.  Thanks
  in advance.

Even though it is free-form question, it shouldn't be hard to analyse, though it wouldn't be completely automatical.
