Is there a Git GUI that shows commit comments?

[DDR-4]

Hi all,

I've created a 'master' git repo on my local machine (git-dvcs), and 2 normal users that can clone, push to and pull from the master repo, using SSH from the command line.

Code: Select all

├── barney-rubble - user 1
├── fred-flintstone - user 2
├── git-dvcs - main 'remote' repo
└── www

Code: Select all

# clone the localhost git-dvcs test repo to the users account
barney-rubble@hp-compaq-a:~/jenkins-ci-tester$ git clone ssh://git-dvcs@localhost:/hom
e/git-dvcs/jenkins-ci-tester.git .
Cloning into '.'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 5, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (5/5), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (3/3), done.
remote: Total 5 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
Receiving objects: 100% (5/5), done.

I'm looking for a Git GUI that each test user can use to view the contents of the 'master' repo.

I'd like for each user to see the updates and commit comments made to the master repo by the other user. For example: when fred makes a commit to the main git-dvcs repo, this will show up in Barney's GUI with the commit comment, and likewise when Barney makes a commit, this will show up in Fred's GUI with the commit comment. This is so I can test out a Jenkins build pipeline.

Is there a GUI that both Fred and Barney can use for this - or a web-based GUI that I can put on the front of the (git-dvcs) master repo that each user can watch in a browser window - similar to how GitHub works?

TIA

GitKraken https://www.gitkraken.com/
You can see the commit comments on the top right

There is a Git applet (in Cinnamon) that may be helpful. (Github explorer)

Thanks for your helpful replies.

GitKraken looks good - probably overkill for what I need just now.

I've decided to use the gui's that are distributed as part of git:
git gui
gitk

It looks like I can also create and push branches from git gui as well - which is rather handy.

Thanks again!

Glad you found something that worked for you.

Best of luck.
