What Gittyup is

Gittyup is a free graphical Git client for Linux, macOS, and Windows, intended to help users understand and manage source code history. The volunteer-developed open-source project continues the GitAhead client. Its history view shows one branch at a time, while tabs let users move between repositories. The diff view supports staging or unstaging individual lines and viewing blame; the blame view includes a timeline of who changed each line. Commit tools include amending commits, message templates, starring commits, and tag selection. Gittyup can help resolve rebase conflicts and continue after resolution. It supports Git LFS and submodules, but not interactive rebase. The project notes support for Gitea instances, and SSH is listed among its dependencies. The MIT license allows use, modification, and distribution, and states that the software comes without warranty. Building from source requires Qt 6.4 or later and a C++11 compiler; CMake 3.19 or later is recommended. The project lists help through its issue tracker, Matrix channel, and Stack Overflow’s gittyup tag.
