A lightweight Windows GUI for quick Git operations — push, link, and clone repos without touching a terminal.
Qit wraps the most common Git workflows in a clean dark-themed desktop app. No terminal, no remembering commands — just pick your folder and go.
- Quick Push — stage, commit, and push in one click
- Link Repo — connect a local folder to an existing GitHub repo and push your code up
- Clone Repo — download any of your public GitHub repos to a local folder
- Windows 10 or later
- Git for Windows
- PowerShell 5.1+ (built into Windows — no install needed)
winget install Kaminolabs.Qit
- Download the latest release from the Releases page
- Run
Qit-Setup.exeand follow the installer - Launch Qit from the Start Menu or desktop shortcut
On first launch, Qit will:
- Check your internet connection to GitHub
- Verify Git is installed (and offer to install it if not)
- Ask for your Git identity (name and email) if not already configured
- Ask for your GitHub username once — saved locally for fetching your repo list
After that it opens straight to the main window every time.
- Pick a folder — Qit opens a folder browser on launch. All operations run in that folder.
- Quick Push — type a commit message and press Enter (or click the button). Done.
- Link Repo — connects a local folder to one of your GitHub repos. Useful when you have existing code you want to push up.
- Clone Repo — pick a repo from your GitHub list and choose where to save it locally.
