GitKraken Desktop 11.5 Release: Performance Upgrade

Back to basics. Back to speed.

GitKraken Desktop 11.5 is about fixing what was slowing you down. Large repos now open in seconds, stashes refresh instantly, and repos with thousands of refs load without breaking a sweat.

Highlights:

• Up to 90% faster Git actions on repos with 100k commits
• Nearly 5x faster on repos with 1M commits
• Stash refreshes that are basically instant
• Faster branches, tags, and refs loading
• GitKraken AI now supports GPT-5 and more
• and the larger your repo, the larger the gains!

This release is about speed, reliability, and bringing GitKraken back to its core: a Git client that just works. And works fast.

Welcome to 11.5. Tell us what performance wins you want next.
