So, only about a decade until reaching feature parity with something like lazygit?
Bookmarking this. I have such high hopes for this! I recently went searching for my new git GUI, looking for something free, cross-platform, and simple. Basically what I found is the only one I like is GitKraken, which is not free (I have private projects, which GitKraken paywalls).
If this ends up anything like how these screenshots look, this will be my new client! Do you have a Patreon or other donation mechanism?
Thank you so much!
I have a GitHub sponsors page (unsure if i can link it here) under this same name.
There is Fork. But sadly, it is not available for Linux. Git-fork.com
Fork is only "free" in that the evaluation period is indefinite. This is generous and clicking through the nag isn't a huge deal, but I develop on both Linux and Windows and I need a client that supports both.
Ah, sorry. I didn't see that you require it to be free. It is also not open source IIRC.
Open source is a definite plus, but tbh not a requirement for me. Actively maintained, free, Windows and Linux, and simple. Oh, and it has to have a dark theme 😄
GitHub Desktop works well for me and my workflow; even though the Linux version is only supported by the community (possible thanks to it being open source). The UI is very neat and simple. Yet you can do squash, reorder commits, ammend, commit hunks etc. Dark theme available of course! It integrates with GitHub (for PRs mostly) but afaik isn't tied to GitHub repos.
Sublime merge has been really good. It's a free trial like sublime text
