GitX

GitX is a git GUI made for Mac OS X. It currently features a history viewer much like gitk and a commit GUI like git gui. But then in silky smooth OS X style!

Features

  • Detailed history viewer
  • Nice commit GUI, allowing hunk- and line-wise staging
  • Fast workflow
  • Explore tree of any revision
  • Nice Aqua interface
  • Paste commits to gist.github.com
  • QuickLook integration

Requirements

GitX runs on Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Because it uses features like Garbage Collection, you can't compile it on earlier systems. GitX also requires a fairly recent Git -- version 1.6.0 and higher are all supported.

Download

The newest version of GitX is <%= ReleaseNotes::last_version %>. This version can be downloaded from here. To see what has changed, read the Release History.

After starting GitX, you can install the command-line tool through the menu (GitX->Enable Terminal Usage…). This will install a “gitx” binary in /usr/local/bin.
