Gitnuro

A FOSS Git client based on (Jetbrains) Compose and JGit.

The main goal of Gitnuro is to provide a multiplatform open source Git client without any kind of constraint to how you can use it nor relying on web technologies.

The project it is still in alpha and many features are lacking or missing, but can be good for basic usage.

Right now you CAN:

• View diffs for text based files.
• View your history log and all its branches.
• Add (stage) & reset (unstage) files.
• Stage & unstage of hunks.
• Checkout files (revert changes of uncommited files).
• Clone.
• Commit.
• Reset commits.
• Revert commits.
• Merge commits (still lacking).
• Create and delete branches locally.
• Create and delete tags locally.
• View remote branches.
• Pull and push.
• Stash and pop stash.
• Checkout a commit (detached HEAD).

Right now you CAN'T:

• Rebase.
• Rebase interactive.
• Manage remotes.
• Remove branches from remote.
• Remove tags from remote.
• Force push.
• View changes/diff in images (side to side comparison).
• Side by side diff in text files.
• Start a new local repository.
• View stashes in the log tree.
