Repository navigation
Git Exclude Manager v1.1.4
v1.1.4 — 2026-10-22
Added
- Drop a repository on the Dock icon — drag a repository folder from Finder onto Git Exclude Manager in the Dock
(or use Open With) and it opens as a tab, whether the app is running or not. A folder that isn't a git
repository gets the usual message naming it. Git Exclude Manager never becomes the default app for folders.
Changed
- One main window — opening a repository from outside the app always uses the window you have; it no longer opens a
second copy of it. Closing the window still keeps the app in the Dock; click the icon to bring it back.
Installation
Download GitExcludeManager-1.1.4.dmg (and SHA256SUMS.txt), drag Git Exclude Manager to Applications
(replace the old copy) and allow the first launch in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway (or
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/GitExcludeManager.app"). Updating: if a repository says the helper
isn't responding, turn Git Exclude Manager off and on again in System Settings → General → Login Items &
Extensions. Requires an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 14 or later.
