Recommendation request:
A GUI Git client for Mac for a highly competent but nontechnical person using Git to track & deploy changes on their personal site? I’m looking for:
- Emphasis on the •simplest commit-push workflow•
- Visual emphasis on •what you are committing•, not the commit graph / branches / git internals / etc
- Minimal footgun potential
- No bells and whistles, no rows of buttons, no fancy visualizations, etc.
(My usual recommendation for this is GitHub Desktop, which fits the bill pretty well, but I’m curious if there are other options out there.)
(My current preferred Git client is Fork, which is really great and also the opposite of what the previous post describes.)
@inthehands
git plugin for the IDE or editor they are already using?
Or: alias publish="git add .; git commit -m .; git push origin HEAD" #USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
@__jz The opportunity to •review• what they’re committing really is the primary feature here.
