About

Gitg is a graphical user interface for git. It aims at being a small, fast and convenient tool to visualize the history of git repositories. Besides visualization, gitg also provides several utilities to manage your repository and commit your work. Goals: - Browse local git repositories - Clone local and remote git repositories - Commit files - Retrieve patch from a commit

  • same name as org.gnome.gitg on Flathub but from a different repository
    publisher:lookalike
  • hosted by github.com/gnome, which owns the org.gnome namespace of org.gnome.gitgDevel
