GIT Visual Tools for Ubuntu

Just started using Ubuntu with Sproutcore.

I’ve been using SVN but want to give GIT a try … since the Sproutcore source is in GitHub.  I was looking for something like TortiseSVN. 

There is TortiseGIT but that is for Windows.

Found that there 3 good tools

  • Giggle - good repository viewer. But this did not show me side-by-side file diffs.  It only showed the differences.
  • Diffuse - can compare local and remote repositories
  • Meld - can only compare local files to git repository but has really nice user interface.

 Following links are helpful:

Think I will use Giggle to browser repositories and Meld to view my local changes.   Diffuse will come in handy if I have to view changes in the repository.

  1. Thanks for a nice list of useful visual tools for git. Giggle looks much user friendly, then gitk :)

  2. No problems. I ended up using Meld. I’ve since moved on to using Eclipse and WebStorm both of which have GIT integration.
