This seems to do the exact same thing, be free forever, and have a more mature GUI that is also easier to use than regular terminal git. In my firm, even with people who don't know how to code, they can use github desktop (since it babies you through the process of committing code.)
- sasham 3y agoThanks! I like GH Desktop as well, as a matter of fact our Web UI is a bit influenced by it :) The difference is that GHD is a GUI for git. It's quite good in hiding some of the complexity, but if you get a git error (like a diverged branch) you still need to troubleshoot it. Diversion is completely different. 1st of all it's far less complex, without local branches, staging area, etc. It also syncs your work in progress to the cloud in real time, alerts users about potential conflicts, handles large files without extra configuration, etc. Feel free to try it! (It's also free forever for small teams).
