Recently Popular Mac Apps (Issue #14)

Posted by

Welcome to Macmust’s new apps introduction column. Here, we will introduce to you the latest and excellent Mac App. We also hope that you can share with us in the comment section the applications that you are interested in or enjoy using. Here are this week’s recommended new apps. The recommended apps will mainly be free apps.

1. GitUp  – The Git interface.

Work quickly, safely, and without headaches. The Git interface you’ve been missing all your life has finally arrived.

Git recently celebrated its 10 years anniversary, but most engineers are still confused by its intricacy (3 of the top 5 questions of all time on Stack Overflow are Git related). Since Git turns even simple actions into mystifying commands (“git add” to stage versus “git reset HEAD” to unstage anyone?), it’s no surprise users waste time, get frustrated, distract the rest of their team for help, or worse, screw up their repo!

GitUp is a bet to invent a new Git interaction model that lets engineers of all levels work quickly, safely, and without headaches. It’s unlike any other Git client out there from the way it’s built (it interacts directly with the Git database on disk), to the way it works (you manipulate the repository graph instead of manipulating commits).

With GitUp, you get a truly efficient Git client for Mac:

  • live and interactive repo graph (edit, reorder, fixup, merge commits…),
  • Unlimited undo / redo of almost all operations (even rebases and merges),
  • Time Machine like snapshots for 1-click rollbacks to previous repo states,
  • Features that don’t even exist natively in Git like a visual commit splitter or a unified reflog browser,
  • Instant search across the entire repo including diff contents,
  • ridiculously fast UI, often faster than the command line.

GitUp is FREE, entirely open source.
