Hug SCM is a humane, intuitive interface for Git and other version control systems.
It works as a universal language to control the underlying SCM tool you use.
Hug transforms complex and forgettable Git commands into a simple, predictable language that feels natural to use, keeping you focused on your code, not on wrestling with version control.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Intuitive commands that make sense.
- Progressive safety (shorter = safer, longer = more powerful).
- Consistent patterns across all operations.
- Rich feedback and previews before destructive actions.
- Multi-VCS support – Use the same commands whether you’re working with Git or Mercurial repositories.
