GitButler is a modern Git-based version control client that pairs a graphical desktop experience with a complementary command-line tool, aiming to make everyday change management easier than traditional Git workflows. It keeps Git compatibility at the core, meaning your work still maps to commits, branches, and pushes to standard Git servers, but it rethinks how you interact with that underlying model. The project is designed around developer productivity, emphasizing smoother workflows for handling multiple streams of work, reviewing changes, and recovering from mistakes without the usual friction. It also positions itself for AI-assisted development patterns, where tooling needs to support rapid iteration and parallel work while staying understandable and reversible. By offering both GUI and CLI surfaces, it can fit into different team preferences, from visual-first change review to scriptable automation.

Features

  • Desktop GUI for visual change management and review
  • Companion CLI for terminal workflows and automation
  • Designed to support parallel workstreams and iterative development
