Developing git with IDE

Hi *,

being last decade working with java & javascript I completely lost relation to c/c++ world. Trying to get into git internals I'm facing with issue what IDE is more suitable for developing git @ macos ?

Have googled, but any my search queries following to non-relevant themes, like supporting git in IDEs etc.

my first attempt - CLion (as far as I'm Jetbrains fan) - got failed, as far as doesn't support makefile-based projects, only CMake.

There are a number of free C/C++ dev tools: Xcode, CodeBlocks, CodeLite. Gnat, Qt creator, Dev C++, C++ Builder (Borland? :), Eclipse, NetBeans... what else?

Because of lack my modern C experience, could somebody share his own attempts/thoughts/use cases how more convenient dive into the git development process on the Mac?

Tried to find in the git distribution Documentation more information about this, nothing as well... Would be nice to have a kind of 'Getting Started Manual'

Thanks for your time,

Oleg Taranenko
