I have a bitbucket account and opened a git repo there. I worked with the command line and made a few simple test commits for a few simple text files. It's actually quite simple, if I just do the, um, standard things with it, for the lack of a better term. So far, so good.

Now I would like to use a git client with a GUI on the said repo. I intend to do this on Xubuntu 13.10 first, afterwards on Windows 7 as well.

Say I use git gui or git-cola, do I simply open the folder on my PC and that's it?
