In 2014, we introduced GitKraken, the legendary cross-platform Git GUI: an intuitive tool to visualize what’s going on under the hood of Git in a way that makes version control less intimidating for individual developers and more scalable for organizations. Next came Glo Boards, a Kanban tool for project managers and developers.

Project management and issue tracking are foundational to a successful development team. Furthermore, task tracking tools that enable automation help maximize productivity, organization, and collaboration. We called in some help from Hogwarts on this release to introduce some truly magical features to GitKraken Boards. We bring you: Column Automation.

While we have always offered GitKraken Pro license free for students, teachers, and nonprofits, we wanted to extend our offerings in these especially trying times. We recently announced the GitKraken Pro for a Cure Program, offering free GitKraken Pro licenses for teams of up to 25 developers working on a COVID-19 related project.

It’s not uncommon for government entities to look to tech leaders in the private sector for trends and technologies. Specifically, the Department of Defense (DoD) has made a concerted effort to modernize software development processes and tool acquisition. In this article, we will reference two 2019 reports created to guide the DoD’s DevSecOps implementation and ongoing success.

Coding Sans has published the State of Software Development Report since 2018 in an effort to uncover the rapidly evolving trends of this particularly agile industry. Each year, the report highlights challenges, best practices, and the tools that are driving the software development industry, and how things have changed year over year.

What is interactive rebase in Git? And how does one rebase interactively? In this advanced Git tutorial, we will go over everything you need to know to understand what interactive rebase is, how to confidently utilize the feature in GitKraken, and an example of how interactive rebase works in Git.
