Download the current binary from the github download page.

Some of the things I’ve added are:

• Sidebar/source view

I started with Pieter de Bie’s sidebar branch and went to town.

• Remote Operations

Fetch, pull, push, add remote, clone, and clone to.

• Commit operations

Merge, cherry-pick, and rebase.

• Checkout file

In the contextual menu for files. Checkout the file as it existed in the selected commit to the index.

• Diff commits and files

In the contextual menu for commits and files. Opens a new window with a diff against the current HEAD. A commit diffs the state of the repository as it existed at that commit. A file diffs the state of the file as it existed in that commit.

• File Browser selection

The file browser now maintains it’s selection when you change to a different commit.

• Quick Look support for 10.6

Now supports the public API for quick look.

If you use git on OS X 10.5+ give my GitX fork a try and let me know what you think.

You can find my fork at my GitHub page.

I made the mistake of starting on a subfork of GitX. I did this because someone had added a feature that I wanted to use. But instead of downloading a binary I had to download the code and compile it. Once I had the code I started looking at it and found a bit here and there that I could add/improve.

But after a bit I decided that I wanted to get serious about getting these features into the main GitX release. So now I am working on integrating these features back into Pieter de Bie’s master branch.

If you would like to help out and are running OS X 10.6 I could use some feedback on the UX of the features I’ve added and bug reports.

One current problem I’ve had reported is that staging/discarding hunks is not always working. I’ve fixed one problem, but I’ve been told it still does not always work. But it’s always working for me so I need a test case that fails so I can track down the problem.
