How come there are no good open source GUI git clients?

>muh open sores
just use discord like everyone else

>GUI client
for what purpose

Open Source projects usually are made for the people who make them in the first place.
Anyone who can build a good GUI client for git doesn't need one.

Github. As in, that's the reason.

>>58572569
Fuck open source, I want to get the job done well

>>58572240

Because it's easier, you piece of shit.

And you know it.

And why wouldn't you want easier?

thanks, I knew about their SVN client, but forgot this existed

>>58572221

There's no need for """GUI'''''' git clients.

Maybe git or version control or programming entirely isn't quite your thing, mactoddler.

does your GUI git client have emoji support?
didn't think so

that is more than ten keystrokes

Are you retarded? The official site of git directly gives a gui. Unless you mean you have an obsession with the specific license in which case you are indeed certainly retarded.

>>58573083
yea, but that one is shit

>>58573068
Yeah but a few words are equal to like 1 click in a gui unless you can't touch type.

>>58572232
>discord as a git client

No wonder you never make any commits

>>58572698
no it isn't... you still need to learn how to use git, and then you can just use the command line. its easier

I want git to commit my changes.

git commit -am Fixed the problem with the frobnicator

OH GOLLY GEE THAT WAS FUCKING HARD.

Do you really want a Gui for that?

So you want a little window with a textbox where you can write your comment (because fuck doing that in your normal editor, amirite?), and a button where you can click to awkwardly mark the files you want to add, etc.?

Just... why? Why do you detest learning new things? You can have a GUI for git, but you don't actually want to have one, because it only makes life harder for you.

>>58573783
>not open source

>>58573828
Yeah but that's the most simle thing to do in git. Certain things like interactive staging where you only add selective hunks is really cumbersome with the normal cli and works better with a proper gui and context menus.

>>58573828
You forgot to quote the commit message

>>58573948
>Certain things like interactive staging where you only add selective hunks is really cumbersome with the normal cli and works better with a proper gui and context menus.
No it isn't

git commit -p
git rebase -i

etc.

But, Ted, how is referring faggots on /g/ to pirated educational materials going to make any money?

Why aren't you using superior Mercurial, anon?

You deserve all the bad things that are happening to you.

>>58574081

THIS FUCKING THIS.

You only need a GUI in the first place because git's command line interface is unintuitive and arcane. You can do much more on mercurial with fewer commands and less switches with more sensible names.

I don't know why this git cancer is such a fad right now.

^ It's the only good gui git client, although it's fucking retarded because simple things are harder to do than in cli

>>58573993
This, not enough people know about patch mode.

FFS, soon you're going to need a GUI for a woman.

>implying you already don't
there aren't even good manuals for it

>>58574121
because torvalds wrote it, so everyone was interested what that retard has conceived again.
and sort of caught on

Sourcetree is fine and free as in beer and its commit and browsing interfaces are huge improvements over git add --interactive and git log

>>58574121
git is the fastest, which matters for large projects like the Linux kernel

>>58574186
If it's not actually better than CLI, then it cannot be considered "good".

And that UI is awful.

>>58574930
also it has built-in git flow support, which was a big deal when I was a wincuck a year ago and couldn't make the damn thing work
