About GitFinder

GitFinder is an indie Git client for macOS built around Finder integration. Files in a repository get badges showing whether they are modified, staged, untracked or conflicted, and you can run Git operations from Finder's contextual menu and toolbar, much as TortoiseGit does on Windows. A separate repository browser window covers local and remote branches, tags, submodules, history and settings, and you can show diffs, blames and file histories for files selected in Finder. It also handles merges, rebases, cherry-picks, stashes and pull requests on hosted repositories, and every operation can be assigned a keyboard shortcut. It is sold as a one-time purchase with a 30-day trial and a refund window, and it supports a wide range of macOS versions. It is a small product with a modest update pace, best for Mac users who think in terms of files and folders rather than commit graphs.

Best for: Mac users who want Git status and commands inside Finder.
