The coolest feature is that you can pull, checkout a commit or reset a branch and submodules will be updated automatically no questions asked. Unless, of course, you've been working on them and they are not in a clean state. This makes debugging much easier as you jump through commits with just a single click.
I don't understand why everybody else is adding a lot of options and preferences even to the simplest functions like pull/push to their Git clients. In Gitbox you only configure URLs and then just interact with the same UI without jumping to extra windows all the time.
- falling 15y agoOleg, your vision is exactly what I like about Gitbox. Git is a toolbox to create your own VCS, Gitbox takes a stance and uses those tools to define a usage model, without tying itself to tradition. It doesn't work for hardcore users and even I sometimes fall back (cringing) to the CLI, but I really appreciate it. Feature request: easier way to switch local and remote branches with the keyboard. Currently I use Cmd-Shift-? to get to the menu.
