Lots of negativity here. I use SourceTree normally and although I'm a command-line comfortable vim/tmux/fugitive/etc kind-of-guy I've decided I like GUIs for GIT. GitKraken is worth watching IMO. So far I've liked using it (I started trying it at 0.5 and just came back to it now with this 0.8 announcement).
I don't care that it's an Electron app. It seems snappy enough for me. Isn't Slack on Electron? I have that running all day too.
This whole "it's not open-source anymore" thing kind of sucks though. If this is just gearing up to be a paid application then it's really got to step up to SourceTree. I initially figured it was just the rowdy javascript crowd flexing their muscles and playing with things like Electron and that it would remain open-sourced.
