GitUX

GitUX is a desktop application for managing Git repositories through a graphical interface. The program focuses on representing commit history with clear branch graphs and introduces voice input functions for executing commands. The application works offline without cloud services, maintaining local operation speed. Its license is a one-time payment without subscription, with a four-week trial period that requires no registration.

• Interactive commit graph. Displays all branches and forks of the repository in a real-time line diagram. Each commit is represented as a node in the graph, with lines connecting ancestors and different branches, allowing you to track history visually without resorting to the command line.
• Voice commands. Allows Git actions to be executed using voice inputs. The user speaks commands like "git commit" or "git push," and the program interprets them to execute them in the active repository, reducing the need to type commands manually.
• Customizable keyboard shortcuts. Includes predefined key combinations for the most frequent operations: commit, pull, push, merge, rebase, checkout. The combinations can be reassigned according to user preference.
• Drag and drop interface. Supports reorganizing commits via drag & drop. Dragging one commit onto another initiates an interactive rebase; moving a branch onto a commit performs a checkout or reset, depending on the context.
• Unified changes view. Split panel showing modified files, side-by-side diff, and a directory tree view. Differences are highlighted per line, with the option to discard or add fragments selectively to the index.
• Remote branch management. List of configured remote repositories, with options to add, delete, or modify remotes. Allows fetching, pulling, and pushing to multiple remotes directly from the corresponding panel.
• Visual stash. Shows a list of temporarily saved changes (stash). Each entry can be applied, dropped, or inspected by double-clicking, showing the files contained in that stash.
• Integrated conflict editor. When a merge conflict occurs, the application presents an interface with three panels: the local version, the remote version, and the combined result. The user can choose blocks from one version or the other to resolve the conflict without external tools.
• Submodule support. Submodules are displayed as distinct entities in the repository tree, indicating the commit they are pointing to. They can be updated or synchronized via specific buttons.
• Reference history. Displays a timeline with branches, tags, and HEAD. References can be created, deleted, or renamed from the interface, with automatic updating of the commit graph.
• Commit search by message or hash. Includes a search field that filters the commits shown in the graph based on the entered text. The search is performed in real-time as you type, highlighting nodes that match the criteria.
• Patch export. Allows you to select one or several commits and generate patch files in .patch format. It can also apply external patches to the current repository using the "Import patch" option.

Development of GitUX began in 2025 by a team of independent developers seeking a lightweight alternative to existing Git clients. The application is written primarily in the JavaScript programming language, using the Electron framework for the desktop interface. The creators maintain a business model based on perpetual licenses, without relying on cloud services or mandatory subscription plans.
