Git Fork has been my favorite Git Client for a while now. Unfortunately they do not support Linux and don't plan to :(
So I took matters into my own hands and created a Git Client inspired by Fork: GerGit. It's Free and Open Source and Fork users will feel very at home here!
I'm just dropping it here in hopes that whoever wants exactly this finds it! I know that I'm not the only one with this desire. On the git fork GitHub is a thread with 200+ comments basically begging for Linux support.
Why
I recently switched to Linux and tried GitKraken, GitCola, SmartGit etc. and none of them really satisfied me the way fork did. So yeah that's the main reason for making this.
Features
It's got all the things that make Fork so amazing:
- the beautiful commit graph
- line staging
- interactive rebase
- conflict resolver
- etc. etc.
Tech
It's built using .NET 10 and Avalonia, and it runs your system git, so it behaves like the git you already use.
