Next generation Git client, written in Rust/Svelte
GitButler is a Git client that lets you work on multiple branches at the same time. It allows you to quickly organize changes into separate branches while all in one working directory. Auto commit messages, GitHub integration and more.
Hey ProductHunt community 👋
GitButler started as a pretty simple observation that the way in which we use Git today hasn't changed much from how version control systems have worked for decades now. There is so much we can still do to improve how we work with, share, merge and collaborate on our code with more modern development workflows.
The GitButler client is a Git client that doesn't just try to map buttons onto all the Git commands, but tries to think about what you're really trying to do and approach the problem new.
Our first big focus is a totally new way to work on branches - simultaneously.
You don't have to choose to be working on branch A or branch B and stashing and switching back and forth between them. You can have _both_ applied at the same time, adding to them, committing on them, pushing them to GitHub, without them getting entangled.
The project is public on GitHub, so go check out the code, build it yourself, open any issues for bugs or just cool things you would love to see us solve for you.
Thanks!
Scott
