GitBob 0.5.0 brings a GitKraken-style graph and sidebar, profiles, and a lot of everyday polish. Still an early alpha: keep your usual backups and pushes.

What's new

  • Profiles: separate settings, open repositories, recent list, connected accounts and Git name/email per profile (e.g. work and personal). Switch from 👤 in the top-right corner; manage them in Settings → Profile.
  • Branch labels that tell you where a branch lives: a 💻 laptop means it's on your computer, the remote's project icon means it's on the server. Local and remote share one label when they match, and sit on separate commits when you have unpushed work. Labels now have their own Branch / Tag column.
  • Author avatars as commit dots (from GitHub for GitHub repositories, initials otherwise; Gravatar is opt-in in Settings → Avatars).
  • Resizable columns, a ⚙ menu to hide them, full messages on hover, and the real commit total while history loads.
  • Hide branches from the graph with the 👁 in the sidebar, a filter box for branches (⌥⌘F / Ctrl+Alt+F), and collapsed sections docked at the bottom.
  • Issues section for GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket.
  • Toolbar: click the repository or branch name to switch; new Stash, Pop, Terminal, Search and Actions buttons.
  • Commit details: a banner when you have uncommitted changes, author picture, Path / Tree file list and All files.
  • Status bar with the latest message, zoom (also ⌘+ / ⌘− / ⌘0) and the version.
  • Clearer pull request errors for organization repositories, with a button to request access.
