As a version control system, Git is delivered within Unix style command line methods, and these commands ultimately create the backbone of Git’s software. MacOS & Linux Operating Systems have a built-in terminal shell that supports Unix-based command line features whereas Microsoft Windows Operating System command line prompt is not a Unix-based terminal.
Get ready to collaborate with your team on a whole new level. While Git is amazing at tracking changes over time and giving us insight into the past, it’s not so great at helping you see what changes others are currently making or who is assigned to work on what parts of the code on any given project. Wouldn’t it be great to get better insight into what others on your team are actively working on, without ever switching applications? We could not agree more! Announcing GitKraken v7.7.
One common question we hear from folks trying out the GitKraken Git GUI for the first time is “how do those Undo and Redo buttons work?” If you’re used to only using the CLI, or a GUI that simply runs Git CLI commands in the background, this might seem like some kind of weird voodoo. The real tech behind this, and all of GitKraken’s awesomeness, is not magic, but open source technology. The same open source technology powering many other Git projects.
If you’ve already connected your GitHub integration via OAuth in GitKraken, you’re good to go! GitHub is changing its security policy and will no longer allow username/password-only access. This change goes into effect on August 13th, 2021, and affects all desktop Git applications that offer a GitHub integration, including GitKraken. Users who have already authenticated to GitHub using OAuth will be unaffected. OAuth is the default connection method within your GitKraken profile settings.
