SourceTree is the only software that they make that doesn't suck.
If you compare SourceTree to other halfway modern git clients (like Tower or GitX-dev), oh boy does it suck! The layout is completely disorganized, the diffing is super lousy. It's slow. It sucks up lots of memory. It's literally the last GUI client I'd use before just going to the command line.
- bbcbasic 10y ago+1 I have to use it over a VM :-(. Commit time is coffee time.
- aclsid 10y agoDid not know about GitX. Will still rely on the command line over here, but it is nice to know there is a free tool to give to less technical people that is faster.
- sb8244 10y agoI switched to SourceTree after GitX (not dev but another fork) kept crashing. I haven't looked back. It's a great client and I haven't had any problems with it. I'm working on decently sized repos but keep a pretty clean flow.
- melvinmt 10y agoAh, I almost forgot about GitX, my first git GUI client before I started using git gui itself.
- tedmiston 10y agoSecond that Tower is so much more Mac-like than SourceTree. On a non-Mac platform, SourceTree would probably be my pick for a git GUI though.
