Is there GUI software for navigating through commits and branches of a project
and for retrieving versions in git projects?

I'm on the team that develops http://gitkraken.com, so I'm a little biased, but
I'd highly recommend you check it out. It's cross-platform so you can use the
same tool in Windows, Mac and Linux and it comes with some other unique
features including undo/redo, indexed search and a responsive, intuitive
design. If GitKraken doesn't work for you, I've also used and had some success
with Git_Extensions (Windows) and GitHub_Desktop (Windows/Mac).

Rather than downloading and compiling the tar.gz file from source(http://
www.syntevo.com/smartgit/index.html), there is a PPA_on_launchpad available
that allows one to install smartgit using the normal apt-get commands.
From a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+t), enter the following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:eugenesan/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install smartgit
This will install the latest version of smartgit.

I am quite partial to smartgit. http://www.syntevo.com/smartgit/index... It's
by far the most complete git client on Linux that I have found. That being
said, there is real strength in the command line, and I suggest you learn it
well before using a GUI.

I guess you are looking for an easy to use front-end for git.
Take a look at "https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/
InterfacesFrontendsAndTools#Graphical_Interfaces" section of
InterfacesFrontendsAndTools page on Git Wiki. There the following have been
mentioned:
http://gitk.sourceforge.net/ - graphical history browser, in Tcl/Tk,
distributed with Git (usually in gitk package)
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/sc... - graphical
commit tool, in Tcl/Tk, distributed with Git (usually in git-gui package)
http://digilander.libero.it/mcostalba/ - uses Qt toolkit
http://live.gnome.org/giggle - uses GTK+ toolkit
http://cola.tuxfamily.org/ - uses PyQt4
http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gitg/ - GTK+/GNOME clone of GitX
http://jonas.nitro.dk/tig/ - text mode interface for git, is GUI and
pager, uses ncurses

There are a couple of software which I personally find very easy to use.
Giggle
Git Cola

Giggle
I personally use giggle [Install_giggle] . It is simple and intuitive to use.

Cola Git GUI
I have not used Cola_Git [Install_git-cola], but this does seem promising.

I used gitg for a while before going back to CLI only. For entertainment value,
there's gource, which can turn your git history into an animation :)
