How to Use

To use this tool, you need to install Git(>=2.23.0) first.

You can download the latest stable from Releases or download workflow artifacts from Github Actions to try this app based on latest commits.

This software creates a folder $"{System.Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData}/SourceGit", which is platform-dependent, to store user settings, downloaded avatars and crash logs.

OS	PATH
Windows	C:\Users\USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\SourceGit
Linux	${HOME}/.config/SourceGit or ${HOME}/.sourcegit
macOS	${HOME}/Library/Application Support/SourceGit

Tip

You can open the app data dir from the main menu.

For Windows users:

• MSYS Git is NOT supported. Please use official Git for Windows instead.
• You can install the latest stable from winget with follow commands:

  winget install SourceGit

Note

winget will install this software as a commandline tool. You need run SourceGit from console or Win+R at the first time. Then you can add it to the taskbar.

• You can install the latest stable by scoope with follow commands:

  scoop bucket add extras
  scoop install sourcegit

• Portable versions can be found in Releases

For macOS users:

• Download sourcegit_x.y.osx-x64.zip or sourcegit_x.y.osx-arm64.zip from Releases. x64 for Intel and arm64 for Apple Silicon.
• Move SourceGit.app to Applications folder.
• Make sure your mac trusts all software from anywhere. For more information, search spctl --master-disable.
• Make sure git-credential-manager is installed on your mac.
• You may need to run sudo xattr -cr /Applications/SourceGit.app to make sure the software works.

For Linux users:

• xdg-open must be installed to support open native file manager.
• Make sure git-credential-manager is installed on your linux.

External Tools

This app supports open repository in external tools listed in the table below.

Tool	Windows	macOS	Linux	KEY IN external_editors.json
Visual Studio Code	YES	YES	YES	VSCODE
Visual Studio Code - Insiders	YES	YES	YES	VSCODE_INSIDERS
VSCodium	YES	YES	YES	VSCODIUM
JetBrains Fleet	YES	YES	YES	FLEET
Sublime Text	YES	YES	YES	SUBLIME_TEXT

Note

This app will try to find those tools based on some pre-defined or expected locations automatically. If you are using one portable version of these tools, it will not be detected by this app. To solve this problem you can add a file named external_editors.json in app data dir and provide the path directly. For example:

{
    "tools": {
        "VSCODE": "D:\\VSCode\\Code.exe"
    }
}

Note

This app also supports a lot of JetBrains IDEs, installing JetBrains Toolbox will help this app to find them.
