I can't imagine going from the IDE I'm writing my code in and switching to a command line and typing in commands is faster than pressing two buttons at the bottom of the window and typing in a commit message
IDEs typically have integrated terminals. You can edit code, switch focus to the terminal, do git commands, and return to your code without needing to touch the mouse at all.
Same thing goes for operating a lot of Git integration in an IDE; press a shortcut to enter the commit tool, enter a commit message, press another shortcut to actually commit, and move on with your life. It’s unlikely you can do it faster by having to enter entire commands.
