A short git tools survey
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Introduction
|
||||
------------
|
||||
|
||||
Apart from git contrib/ area there are some others third-party tools
|
||||
you may want to look.
|
||||
|
||||
This document presents a brief summary of each tool and the corresponding
|
||||
link.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Alternative/Augmentative Procelains
|
||||
-----------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- *Cogito* (http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/cogito/)
|
||||
|
||||
Cogito is a version control system layered on top of the git tree history
|
||||
storage system. It aims at seamless user interface and ease of use,
|
||||
providing generally smoother user experience than the "raw" Core GIT
|
||||
itself and indeed many other version control systems.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
- *pg* (http://www.spearce.org/category/projects/scm/pg/)
|
||||
|
||||
pg is a shell script wrapper around GIT to help the user manage a set of
|
||||
patches to files. pg is somewhat like quilt or StGIT, but it does have a
|
||||
slightly different feature set.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
- *StGit* (http://www.procode.org/stgit/)
|
||||
|
||||
Stacked GIT provides a quilt-like patch management functionality in the
|
||||
GIT environment. You can easily manage your patches in the scope of GIT
|
||||
until they get merged upstream.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
History Viewers
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
- *gitk* (shipped with git-core)
|
||||
|
||||
gitk is a simple TK GUI for browsing history of GIT repositories easily.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
- *gitview* (contrib/)
|
||||
|
||||
gitview is a GTK based repository browser for git
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
- *gitweb* (ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/gitweb/)
|
||||
|
||||
GITweb provides full-fledged web interface for GIT repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
- *qgit* (http://digilander.libero.it/mcostalba/)
|
||||
|
||||
QGit is a git/StGIT GUI viewer built on Qt/C++. QGit could be used
|
||||
to browse history and directory tree, view annotated files, commit
|
||||
changes cherry picking single files or applying patches.
|
||||
Currently it is the fastest and most feature rich among the git
|
||||
viewers and commit tools.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Foreign SCM interface
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
- *git-svn* (contrib/)
|
||||
|
||||
git-svn is a simple conduit for changesets between a single Subversion
|
||||
branch and git.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
- *quilt2git / git2quilt* (http://home-tj.org/wiki/index.php/Misc)
|
||||
|
||||
These utilities convert patch series in a quilt repository and commit
|
||||
series in git back and forth.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Others
|
||||
------
|
||||
|
||||
- *(h)gct* (http://www.cyd.liu.se/users/~freku045/gct/)
|
||||
|
||||
Commit Tool or (h)gct is a GUI enabled commit tool for git and
|
||||
Mercurial (hg). It allows the user to view diffs, select which files
|
||||
to committed (or ignored / reverted) write commit messages and
|
||||
perform the commit itself.
|
||||
|
||||
- *git.el* (contrib/)
|
||||
|
||||
This is an Emacs interface for git. The user interface is modeled on
|
||||
pcl-cvs. It has been developed on Emacs 21 and will probably need some
|
||||
tweaking to work on XEmacs.
