Why are they even on the same bus?

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

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

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

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

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

CLI because linux

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.

The GitHub CLI is magic.

[–] eluvatar@programming.dev 4 points 1 year ago

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

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
