Comment on 8 Months and Counting: The (harsh) reality of building a product from scratch.

Ah, sorry. I didn’t see that you require it to be free. It is also not open source IIRC.

Open source is a definite plus, but tbh not a requirement for me. Actively maintained, free, Windows and Linux, and simple. Oh, and it has to have a dark theme 😄

GitHub Desktop works well for me and my workflow; even though the Linux version is only supported by the community (possible thanks to it being open source). The UI is very neat and simple. Yet you can do squash, reorder commits, ammend, commit hunks etc. Dark theme available of course! It integrates with GitHub (for PRs mostly) but afaik isn’t tied to GitHub repos.
