   Thanks to recommendations from folks on Mastodon who recommended the https://fork.dev Git client. It’s really great. I’ve been using it for the last several weeks, and it’s become my client of choice for my everyday review-commit-push workflows.

     @miah I tried that too, but Fork is •much• more to my taste.

     My earlier post on the topic received a large number of excellent recommendations. I’m now just passing along the one that worked for me.

     While I’m on the topic, another shout-out to IMO the most overlooked Git too on macOS: https://gitup.co

     I don’t use it for my routine workflow, but find it indispensable any time I’m doing something tricky or dangerous that alters the commit graph.

     @GeekAndDad Its select-changes-and-commit flow is fine, but I like Fork’s better. And its history view shows only one commit message at a time, which is helpful (essential!) for visualizing a massive graph, but less good for browsing unpushed commits etc.

     @inthehands Looks cool. Why don’t you use it for your regular workflow, if you don’t mind me asking?
