What platypusgit is

platypusgit is a native desktop Git client for developers, available on Linux, macOS, and Windows. It lets users stage, unstage, or discard files and individual hunks, then commit with amend or author override. Change review includes unified and side-by-side diffs, syntax highlighting, a minimap, blame, and a repository file browser. History tools include a commit graph, file history, reflog viewer, reset, cherry-pick, revert, and interactive rebase. The feature set also includes conflict resolution, stashes, submodules, Git LFS, linked worktrees, and bisect. For GitHub and GitLab, it can list, check out, create, and open pull or merge requests, including on self-hosted instances. The project is open source under GPLv3, with no account requirement, paywall, or feature tiers. Its maker says there is no telemetry and repositories and history remain on the user's machine; outbound traffic is limited to configured Git remotes, update checks, and configured forge APIs. Development is active, and the maker warns of frequent releases and rough edges. The macOS app is ad-hoc signed but not notarized, and the Windows installer is not yet code-signed.
