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.
@inthehands (pssst I am pretty sure if you are *using git for a personal project* you are actually a technical person)
@thatandromeda
Yeah, I mean, to clarify: mathematician starting a blog using Hugo and Git-based deployment, very comfortable with LaTeX and will learn Markdown in about 3 seconds, but also…never opened the CLI at all before this, mostly avoids writing code, will never and should never use 98% of Git’s features, completely unexcited by tinkering with power-user stuff, would mostly prefer just to Not Have To Think About That Thank You Very Much
@inthehands I use gitup, which I saw elsewhere, but I don’t think it’s a fit for your needs. I wonder if the git plugin for vscode, or something like that, is what you want - just commit code and push branches from the same place you’re writing your blog.
