SourceTree has a tabbed interface as well now. The diff viewer might be interesting if it's really good but I think that to require an external viewer where the company focused on that as a product. On Mac most of the good options are paid though, might help you.
How do you enable the tabbed interface?
Yet another Git GUI front end :-) The homebrew version of the Git is bundled with two Git GUI frontends called gitk (invoked with `gitk`) and git-ui (invoked with `git gui`)
It's not just homebrew, they're part of most standard git distributions (fully cross platform!)

I don't know why, but a lot of devs seem to just ignore ~/Library/Application Support/, where crap like this is supposed to go
It's worse on Windows, where Git tools (including some from Microsoft themselves!) expect to see a .ssh folder in your user folder root. Wrong. Bad. Windows doesn't work that way! There's not even any contract/guarantee the user folder root is writable by the user in Windows! Sigh. Lazy Linux developers making lazy "ports" lazily.
Might be an issue with the port of openssh, rather than git itself.

I already got that question today. So, I'll just repost my answer: here are some differences from the top of the head: * Fork has tabbed interface * For each commit you can see not only changes, but also the whole repository as it was at the moment of commit * Diff viewer shows exact difference between two pieces of code. For example, here are both SourceTree and Fork showing the same commit: https://dl.dropboxuserco…

i have been using GitBox ( http://gitboxapp.com ) for quite awhile now, but it seems like it doesn't get much in the way of updates, so i tried this. Very first thing it does is write a file called "gitclient.log" to my home directory. i deleted it, and it came back the next time i started the app. I see nothing in the prefs that allows you to move the file somewhere else. call me picky, but this is is a deal-breaker…
I can't live without line by line commits. It's the only reason I use a GUI over the command line to begin with.

Hi. Didn't even think about such a requirement. In next version I'll make credentials optional (with a warning though).
People shouldn't use git without having configured that. It would prevent incorrect commits landing in public repositories. Actually git defaults to some made-up local git author if it's not set, and that's less useful and sometimes invalid, provoking git-fsck errors.
