GitUp
v1.5.0
About
GitUp shows the entire commit graph at once and lets you work directly on it: drag a branch to move it, squash commits by dragging, and see what every ref is doing at a glance. It is fast even on large repositories, has a built-in merge tool, and deliberately avoids hiding Git behind a simplified model. It is free and open source.
