Git clients

Git clients mostly put the same commands behind different screens, so the one that fits your habits matters more than a long feature list. Want no screen at all? Git itself is here too. Compare 6 Git tools and grab an older version if a new release changes the workflow you know.

What you’ll find here

This page covers Git and graphical Git clients for Windows and macOS, including the official Git command-line tool and desktop apps for staging, branching, merging and viewing history. Each app has its own page with versions, installers and checksums, so you can choose a client and download the exact build you want.

The 6 apps listed here are Fork - a fast and friendly git client, Git, GitHub Desktop, GitKraken, Sourcetree, and Sublime Merge. All 6 run on Windows, and 5 also on macOS. Of these, 2 are open source. Between them the site lists 223 versions. Older versions are mostly available for Windows; for macOS the current release is usually the one listed. Everyversion hosts no installers: every download button goes to the download location named in the publisher’s package data, normally the publisher’s own server. For all 6 we downloaded the installers ourselves and re-computed their SHA-256.
