   GitButler looks like the client I was always looking for actually, wow.

     @alatiera That'd be awesome. However:

     GitButler is Tauri*, not Electron, so that makes it trickier (for now).

     https://github.com/gitbutlerapp/gitbutler/issues/2509

     https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/discussions/4426

     There are at least 2 Tauri apps that are in Flathub already, but Tauri 1.x doesn't really support it well. Tauri 2.0 should support it soon?

     * Tauri is basically like Electron, but uses the system webview to make apps a lot smaller. (On Linux and macOS, that means WebKit. On Windows, it's the Edge version of Chromium, IIRC.)

     Anyone wants to Flatpak it, since it's electron?

     @garrett Yea indeed, I just watched the fosdem talk last night.

     Oh Tauri yea, I even talked with some of the developers.

     They could have done away with the design patterns that most electron apps use 😆

     @alatiera FWIW: I'm also hoping that it gets packaged soon.

     The Git talk @ FOSDEM is the first I've heard of GitButler (I assume you saw it there), and it does look amazing!

     And Tauri is something we so desperately need — it should be a lot better than Electron for "native" web-based apps.

     Hopefully someone will see all this and help out to make sure it's all more easily flatpak'd!

     @alatiera Wait IIUC it allows fixing tiny things in older commits without some tedious interactive rebasing!?

     clacke repeated this.
