Free, beginner-friendly Git app: plain-English steps and one-click undo.

Free, beginner-friendly Git app for Linux. See your project's history as a clear graph, understand every action in plain English, and undo mistakes in one click. Everything runs on your machine: no account, no cloud, no telemetry.

MADE FOR PEOPLE LEARNING GIT

  • Every action explained in plain English before it runs
  • A "What should I do?" panel suggests the next sensible step
  • One-click Undo for commits, merges and rebases
  • Activity (reflog) view to jump back to any earlier state

SEE WHAT HAPPENED

  • Interactive commit graph you can zoom and pan
  • Click any commit to peek at its changes without checking it out
  • Clear, colour-coded diffs

EVERYDAY WORK

  • Review your changes, write a message and commit
  • Fetch, pull, push, switch branches and clone, each with a plain-language confirmation
  • Resolve merge conflicts on a side-by-side screen: keep mine, keep theirs, or edit
  • Ctrl+K command palette for quick actions

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

  • Works offline with your local repositories
  • Nothing leaves your computer unless you push to a remote you choose
  • No account, no ads, no tracking, no subscription

Optional: connect your own local AI server (for example Ollama) to suggest commit messages. Off by default.
