Yet you can extract the embedded app.asar and get the source code if you so please. There may be native libraries that are closed source. This is another Electron app after all.

#53This is an Electron app, meaning it does not look, feel, or perform like a native Mac app. FYI in case that's important to you.

Yeah. I don't know when this happened, but that's become a deal breaker for me. Strange, right? Edit to add: It's particularly strange because I wouldn't depend on this tool in some infrastructural way -- I could switch clients anytime without any lock in. But I'm no longer willing to even try anymore. Odd.
I don't think this is a dealbreaker for 99% of people. I currently use Tower ( https://www.git-tower.com/ ), a closed-source Mac Git client that costs $70. It's beautiful, it speeds up my work day to day, and it's been worth every cent. Open source is great and I spend my days building an open-source mail client, but I have no problem paying for great tools.

You're more than welcome to donate to Free software projects developing those tools and ask for a feature.
Re: GitKraken: git GUI Client for Windows Mac and Linux
#56Title seems a bit misleading. From the FAQ: Does GitKraken support GitHub Enterprise/Bitbucket Server? GitKraken currently does not support these services but support is planned for a future release. The only conclusion I can draw from this is that GitKraken supports one or more specific git based services that aren't GitHub Enterprise or Bitbucket, both of which use git. I'm assuming that the service it does support…

#59Does it have per-hunk and per-line staging/unstaging like sourcetree? That's an absolute must for me.
Re: GitKraken: git GUI Client for Windows Mac and Linux
#60Love the interface, dark theme and super intuitive. Could use syntax highlighting in diffs, though. It will need that feature to convince me to pay money, later. One weird thing: it'd be great to have the option to show a name, instead of a shrunken avatar in the commit log, perhaps configure how this is shown, so I can choose the format of the name and if I want to see an avatar or not... I may be the only one, but…
