Gitree
A fast, native Git desktop client for Windows.
Download
Download the current Windows x64 executable from the latest release, or browse all releases.
No installer is required: download the executable and run it.
Use Gitree
Open Gitree, choose Open repository, and select a local Git repository. You can also pass its path when launching from a terminal:
.\Gitree-windows-x64.exe C:\path\to\repository
Use the sidebar to switch branches and browse refs. Select a commit to inspect its details and changes. The commit area lets you stage files and create commits.
Build from source
Requirements
- Windows 10 or later (x64)
- Git
- CMake 3.21 or later
- A C++20 compiler: Visual Studio 2022 with the Desktop development with C++ workload, or a recent MinGW-w64 toolchain
- Ninja is optional;
run.batuses it automatically when available
Clone the repository with all submodules:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://dock-it.dev/Idea-Studios/Gitree.git
cd Gitree
If the repository was cloned without --recurse-submodules, initialize the
dependencies before configuring the build:
git submodule update --init --recursive
Build and run automatically
From a Developer PowerShell or Command Prompt:
run.bat
run.bat configures a Release build, builds Gitree, and launches it. Pass a
repository path to open it immediately:
run.bat C:\path\to\repository
Build with Visual Studio 2022
cmake -S . -B build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64
cmake --build build --config Release --parallel
.\build\bin\Release\gitree.exe
Build with Ninja
Run these commands in a shell where your compiler is available. For MSVC, use a Visual Studio Developer PowerShell or Developer Command Prompt.
cmake -S . -B build -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build build --parallel
.\build\bin\gitree.exe
