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.
