Releases
Information about GitButler's release tracks, supported platforms, and download options for stable and nightly builds.

import { Callout } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/callout';

GitButler is released on a regular basis in two separate tracks. Their version numbers are incremented independently.

  1. Release - stable releases
  2. Nightly - development releases built at minimum 1x per day via GitHub Actions.
You can find the download links and changelogs for the latest releases on our [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/gitbutlerapp/gitbutler/releases).

Platforms

We bundle and ship GitButler for Mac OS, Windows, and Linux.

Windows

Arch Format In-app updater
x86_64 msi

Mac OS

Arch Format In-app updater
x86_64 dmg
arm64 dmg

Linux

Arch Format In-app updater
x86_64 deb
x86_64 rpm
x86_64 AppImage

Support for the Linux releases are complicated a bit through a core dependency of our framework, libwebkit2gtk, which is used to provide the web view on Linux. Tauri v1 required libwebkit2gtk-4.0 which is not available in Ubuntu 24.04 or Debian 13 and newer.

We've recently upgraded to Tauri v2 (as of Nightly 0.5.845 and Release 0.13.9), and it now requires libwebkit2gtk-4.1. This version of the package is not available in the repositories for Ubuntu 20.04 and older as well as Debian 11 and older.

For more information, check out the pinned issue in the Tauri repository.
