    It's a great alternative for GitKraken. It supports easy rebases, merges, commit amends, file history, etc. Also I have admin that their git log is super easy to read and to interact with.

    Git Extensions vs GitKraken Comments

    It's totally transparent about what it does and it can handle any situation you get yourself into. I've had GitKraken die on me after I pruned dead branches because it was still referencing them for something. I don't think GitKraken is good for learning git or for people who like to work both in the command line and GUI.

  7. GitUp icon

    GitUp is a bet to invent a new Git interaction model that lets engineers of all levels work quickly, safely, and without headaches. It's unlike any other Git client out there from the way it’s built (it interacts directly with the Git database on disk), to the way it works...
