Git GUI tools

Last updated November 25, 2011.

Git can be integrated with your development environment using command-line tools, several 'front-ends' or GUIs, and integrated tools in some IDEs.

This section includes documentation to configure tools for use with Drupal.org and, where available, detailed directions for best-practice workflows using those tools.

Refer to Git interfaces, frontends, and tools for a comprehensive list maintained in the official Git Wiki, including graphical user interfaces (GUIs).

I would like to recommend

I would like to recommend Gitx (https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Interfaces,_frontends,_and_tools#GitX) for MacOS. Is more like a viewer and it won't help you much if you're trying to avoid the terminal, but if you move around the terminal and want to see a nice picture of your project, you just do gitx --all and Gitx will open and show you the project's log.

Why were my child pages removed?

I added child pages for Tower and GitMac (now Sprout) several months ago, and these child pages have been removed. Can someone tell me why? These are excellent Git GUI apps for Mac. They were both in Beta at the time, but both are in full release now.

It would be really great if these pages could be restored so updates to them could be made on their official releases.

Thank you,
