Visual Studio Git Integration

I noticed while working on Abiathar Online that Visual Studio 2013 (the Professional version at least) automatically integrates with the Git version control system. I created a solution file inside a folder managed by GitHub for Windows and noticed that all the files had little marks next to them indicating their status in Git. The Team Explorer actually does something - I can create commits and perform synchronization without having to actually open the GitHub program. Git-related actions such as Commit have been added to the context menu of items in the Solution Explorer.

This is all really convenient, and I have one more reason to love Visual Studio.
