GitHub Desktop or Git CLI?

  Personally, GitExtensions… github desktop is a pile of turds but git CLI introduces unnecessary stress precisely when I don’t want it.

    Yup. I don’t care if my workflow is suboptimally slow, I can easily see exactly I’m doing with git extensions.

    Source tree has always been horribly optimized to point of uselessness. Wonder if it’s still shit

      What do you mean by this? It works fine for me so far, though I’m not a heavy user.

    Same here. Use it regularly at work. For personal projects, I tend to just use the IDE.

  For something with such an horrible interface, it’s amazing how often people that create a new interface for it manage to make it worse.

  I only use it to clone projects via the Open in GitHub desktop link.

  Ohmyzsh with the git plugin is my fave - gaa & gcmsg “a commit” feels like the right level of verbosity for me.

  • hypnotic_nerd@programming.dev ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Wow what’s the plugin name I wanna try it out.

    source

    • alphabetsheep@lemmy.world ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      The plugin is just called “git” it comes with ohmyzsh out of the box. You just have to enable it in your zshrc.

  GitguiI is pretty great too if you need a bit of interactivity. It’s bare bones and no bullshit but can still do like 90% of what all the other fancy tools can do.

  Uh how do i get this to work on Linux? I tried pushing a project and it just asks for a password, and PW support is deprecated

    docs.github.com/…/connecting-to-github-with-ssh

    Connect an SSH key and use that.

    source

    • Juice@hexbear.net ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      No luck, i tried that and https login and it still asks for a PW when I push

    I’m not sure about the exact commands, but you do something like gh auth login to authenticate the CLI and then something like gh ssh setup to change ssh’s config file to authorize using the GH CLI.

      I’ll try that, thanks

  • Gambled23@sh.itjust.works ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago
