GitButler – Git branch management tool

GitButler is a Git branch management tool, built from the ground up for modern workflows.

This GUI lets you work on multiple branches at the same time. It allows you to quickly organize file changes into separate branches while still having them applied to your working directory. You can then push branches individually to your remote, or directly create pull requests.

This is free and open source software.

Features include:

  • More flexible version of git add -p and git rebase -i, allowing you to efficiently multitask across branches.
  • Virtual Branches – normal Git branches, except that you can work on several of them at the same time.:
    • Organize work on multiple branches simultaneously, rather than constantly switching branches.
    • Automatically create new branches when needed.
    • Butler Flow is a lightweight, branch-based workflow enabled by GitButler virtual branch functionality.
  • Easy Commit Management:
    • Undo, Amend and Squash commits by dragging and dropping.
  • GitHub Integration:
    • Authenticate to GitHub to open Pull Requests, list branches and statuses and more.
  • Easy SSH Key Management:
    • GitButler can generate an SSH key to upload to GitHub automatically:
  • AI Tooling:
    • Automatically write commit messages based on your work in progress.
    • Automatically create descriptive branch names.
  • Commit Signing:
    • Easy commit signing with our generated SSH key.
