I use SmartGit for almost 2 years now and it is a great product. That I knew, what I've learned the last days is that they have a great support.
The support team helped me a lot with a problem that I had after updating java on my PC.
I had an issue pulling from bitbucket with https and they spent hours with me fixing it event though I have a non commercial license so they could just say, go and buy a license then we will support you.
In my opinion we need more companies like this one and I will be very glad to tell everyone how good they are.
Thanks to all the team...
Superb git client. Excellent UI and very stable.
I prefer functionality over form when it comes to a critical tool like my Git client, and SmartGit has loads of additional functionality compared to all the other ones I have tried. It may not be as pretty as some clients, but I honestly do not care about that. Its interface is clean, flexible, and very powerful. It has frequent updates which I always look forward to, and it has one-time purchase options in addition to subscriptions, which seems rare these days. It also has a one-time purchase option for lifetime updates, which is what I opted for.
SmartGit doesn't try to obfuscate how Git works like a lot of other clients do. With those types of clients I feel like you may never end up understanding how Git works. SmartGit is easy to use, but also allows you to learn how Git works over time by providing easy access to all the underlying functionality so you'll become comfortable with edge-case issues with Git and be able to solve them, and actually just use Git "better" for day-to-day activities.
One significant bonus about SmartGit is that it works on Windows/Linux/Mac with the exact same interface. Previously, I had different clients on Windows/Mac, and I would always have to fumble around on Mac b/c I didn't use it as often.
In the end, SmartGit is just a joy to use, and is by far my favorite tool that I had any real choice in selecting (unlike Visual Studio for instance).
So far I find SmartGit the best GIT client among all others. Intuitive. I often use console GIT client, but also use SmartGit to view history and diff, commiting, deleting files etc, everything what is unconvenient to do from console. Very convenient app.
Helpful tool for seeing changes in private git repository. Good alternative for IDE built-in tool.
