Why are they even on the same bus?

GitLens?

GitHub Desktop is literally "Baby's first git GUI".

Personally, GitExtensions... github desktop is a pile of turds but git CLI introduces unnecessary stress precisely when I don't want it.

[–] SketchySeaBeast@lemmy.ca 4 points 11 months ago

Yup. I don't care if my workflow is suboptimally slow, I can easily see exactly I'm doing with git extensions.

I really like Sourcetree, been using that for a long time.

Source tree has always been horribly optimized to point of uselessness. Wonder if it’s still shit

CLI because linux

[–] jelloeater85@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

The GitHub CLI is magic.

[–] pastelmind@programming.dev 4 points 11 months ago

Fork is much better than GitHub Desktop, you can use it without paying indefinitely

For something with such an horrible interface, it's amazing how often people that create a new interface for it manage to make it worse.

[–] CCF_100@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Well one runs on Linux and the other doesn't so....

I only use it to clone projects via the Open in GitHub desktop link.

Ohmyzsh with the git plugin is my fave - gaa & gcmsg "a commit" feels like the right level of verbosity for me.

Uh how do i get GH cli to work on Linux? I tried pushing a project and it just asks for a password, and PW support is deprecated
