TortoiseGit
Windows Explorer Extension to Operate Git
TortoiseGit is a free, open-source graphical client for the version-control system Git, implemented as a shell extension for Windows — meaning it integrates directly into Windows Explorer, letting you execute Git operations via context menus and see version status directly on folders and files. Instead of relying solely on command-line Git commands, TortoiseGit gives developers a user-friendly interface: overlay icons show file statuses (modified, untracked, committed, etc.), and right-click context menus bring up Git operations like commit, push, pull, branch management, and diff/merge tools. It includes utilities for visual diff/merge, history browsing, and conflict resolution, making version control more accessible especially for those less comfortable with the command line. Because it integrates at the shell level, you can manage repositories from anywhere in Windows Explorer — without needing to open a separate GUI or IDE. -

Branchless workflow for Git
High-velocity, monorepo-scale workflow for Git
git-branchless is a suite of tools that enhances Git in several ways. It makes Git easier to use, both for novices and for power users. Patch-stack workflows: strong support for "patch-stack" workflows as used by the Linux and Git projects, as well as at many large tech companies. (This is how Git was "meant" to be used.) Prototyping and experimenting workflows: strong support for prototyping and experimental work via "divergent" development. git sync: to rebase all local commit stacks and branches without having to check them out first. git move: The ability to move subtrees rather than "sticks" while cleaning up old branches, not touching the working copy, etc. Anonymous branching: reduces the overhead of branching for experimental work. In-memory operations: to modify the commit graph without having to check out the commits in question. git next/prev: to quickly jump between commits and branches in a commit stack. -

Git Large File Storage
Git extension for versioning large files
An open source Git extension for versioning large files. Git Large File Storage (LFS) replaces large files such as audio samples, videos, datasets, and graphics with text pointers inside Git, while storing the file contents on a remote server like GitHub.com or GitHub Enterprise. Download and install the Git command line extension. Once downloaded and installed, set up Git LFS for your user account. In each Git repository where you want to use Git LFS, select the file types you'd like Git LFS to manage (or directly edit your .gitattributes). You can configure additional file extensions at any time. Host more in your Git repositories. External file storage makes it easy to keep your repository at a manageable size. Download less data. This means faster cloning and fetching from repositories that deal with large files. Work like you always do on Git, no need for additional commands, secondary storage systems, or toolsets. -

gitbatch
manage your git repositories in one place
Managing multiple git repositories is easier than ever. I (was) often end up working on many directories and manually pulling updates etc. To make this routine faster, I created a simple tool to handle this job. Although the focus is batch jobs, you can still do de facto micro-management of your git repositories (e.g add/reset, stash, commit etc.) run the gitbatch command from the parent of your git repositories. For start-up options simply gitbatch --help. -

Lazygit
Simple terminal UI for git commands
You've heard it before, git is powerful, but what good is that power when everything is so damn hard to do? Interactive rebasing requires you to edit a goddamn TODO file in your editor? Are you kidding me? To stage part of a file you need to use a command-line program to step through each hunk and if a hunk can't be split down any further but contains code you don't want to stage, you have to edit an arcane patch file by hand? Are you KIDDING me?! Sometimes you get asked to stash your changes when switching branches only to realize that after you switch and unstash that there weren't even any conflicts and it would have been fine to just check out the branch directly? If you're a mere mortal like me and you're tired of hearing how powerful git is when in your daily life it's a powerful pain in your ass, lazygit might be for you. -

gitbase
SQL interface to git repositories, written in Go.
gitbase, is a SQL database interface to Git repositories. This project is now part of source{d} Community Edition, which provides the simplest way to get started with a single command. It can be used to perform SQL queries about the Git history and about the Universal AST of the code itself. gitbase is being built to work on top of any number of git repositories. gitbase implements the MySQL wire protocol, it can be accessed using any MySQL client or library from any language. The project is currently in alpha stage, meaning it's still lacking performance in a number of cases but we are working hard on getting a performant system able to process thousands of repositories in a single node. Stay tuned! gitbase was born to ease the analysis of git repositories and their source code. Also, making it MySQL compatible, we provide the maximum compatibility between languages and existing tools. -
