Best Git GUI Clients for Windows

Focus on what matters instead of fighting with Git. Whether you're new to Git or a seasoned user, GitHub Desktop simplifies your development workflow. Quickly add co-authors to your commit. Great for pairing and excellent for sending a little love/credit to that special someone who helped fix that gnarly bug of yours. See the attribution on the history page, undo an accidental attribution, and see the co-authors on GitHub. See all open pull requests for your repositories and check them out as if they were a local branch, even if they're from upstream branches or forks. See which pull requests pass commit status checks, too! The new GitHub Desktop supports syntax highlighting when viewing diffs for a variety of different languages. Easily compare changed images. See the before and after, swipe or fade between the two, or look at just the changed parts. Open your favorite editor or shell from the app, or jump back to GitHub Desktop from your shell.

TortoiseGit is a Windows Shell Interface to Git and based on TortoiseSVN. It's open source and can fully be build with freely available software. Since it's not an integration for a specific IDE like Visual Studio, Eclipse or others, you can use it with whatever development tools you like, and with any type of file.

TortoiseGit supports you by regular tasks, such as committing, showing logs, diffing two versions, creating branches and tags, creating patches and so on. TortoiseGit provides overlay icons showing the file status, a powerful context menu for Git and much more. It is developed under the GPL. Which means it is completely free for anyone to use, including in a commercial environment, without any restriction. The source code is also freely available, so you can even develop your own version if you wish to.

Git Cola is a sleek and powerful graphical user interface for Git. Git Cola is free software and written in Python (v2 + v3). The editor used by Ctrl-e is configured from the Preferences screen. The environment variable $VISUAL is consulted when no editor has been configured. Configuring your editor to gvim -f -p will open multiple tabs when editing files. gvim -f -o uses splits. When you select a line in the grep screen and press any of Enter, Ctrl-e, or the Edit button, you are taken to that exact line. Git Cola has many useful keyboard shortcuts. Many of Git Cola’s editors understand vim-style hotkeys, eg. {h,j,k,l} for navigating in the diff, status, grep, and file browser widgets. The Git Cola interface is composed of various cooperating tools. Double-clicking a tool opens it in its own subwindow. Dragging it around moves and places it within the main window. Tools can be hidden and rearranged however you like. Git Cola carefully remembers your window layout and restores it.

Magit is a complete text-based user interface to Git. It fills the glaring gap between the Git command-line interface and various GUIs, letting you perform trivial as well as elaborate version control tasks with just a couple of mnemonic key presses. Magit looks like a prettified version of what you get after running a few Git commands but in Magit every bit of visible information is also actionable to an extent that goes far beyond what any Git GUI provides and it takes care of automatically refreshing this output when it becomes outdated. In the background Magit just runs Git commands and if you wish you can see what exactly is being run, making it possible for you to learn the git command-line by using Magit. Using Magit for a while will make you a more effective version control user. Magit supports and streamlines the use of Git features that most users and developers of other Git clients apparently thought could not be reasonably mapped to a non-command-line interface.

Actions can be run from menu and corresponding output is grabbed by a terminal window. QGit implements a GUI for the most common StGIT commands like push/pop and apply/format patches. You can also create new patches or refresh current top one using the same semantics of git commit, i.e. cherry picking single modified files.

It is designed to be easy and intuitive to use and yet powerful enough so you don't need to use a command line git. GitForce is written in C# and uses .NET 3.5 framework. The same binary file (“GitForce.exe”) runs as-is on both Windows and Linux operating systems (or any other OS with Mono support). The tool consists of only one executable file and needs no installer – just copy it to a folder of your choice and run it. Consequently, the main requirements are having .NET support (or Mono runtime on Linux) and the actual git command line tool, already installed and working. That said, GitForce is still powerful enough to be used exclusively, without calling up a command line git tool. It likely fully satisfies needs of a great majority of users. I hope that this tool will help many users who are new to git and also to people already familiar with Perforce (a similar source control front-end tool.)

Answer the question "why is this code there?" more effectively than with conventional Git clients. DeepGit is a tool to investigate the history of source code. It is based on git blame and makes it easy to trace changes to a line or block of code. DeepGit will detect code movements, even if lines are not identical. DeepGit is free to use for everyone, even in a commercial environment. Integrate DeepGit with any IDE which supports external tools: Eclipse, Visual Studio, IntelliJ Idea, ... and powerful text editors like Sublime. Check out the tour to understand how DeepGit is working. Use DeepGit on Windows, macOS and Linux. DeepGit will generate a blame for the selected file. Once finished, it will analyze the selected line and its vicinity for its origin. Note that the origin which DeepGit has found is not exactly equal to the left counterpart. Also note that despite selecting just a single line, DeepGit has estimated a block of lines as an optimal match.
