SourceGit is a graphical Git client with a broad range of repository management tools wrapped in a clean desktop interface. It handles everyday Git work as well as operations that less ambitious clients often leave to the command line.
The application provides detailed history, staging and diff views alongside tools for branches, tags, remotes, worktrees and submodules. It also caters for larger workflows with repository grouping, SSH configuration, Git LFS support and extensive history inspection.
This is free and open source software.
