Gitkraken Boards Gitlab



Gitkraken

The GitKraken Git GUI is a cross-platform client for Windows, Mac, and Linux, simplifying complicated Git commands into drag-and-drop actions. The GitKraken Git Client integrates with Azure DevOps, along with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, GitHub Enterprise, GitLab Self-Managed, and Bitbucket Server. Fork does not integrate with Azure DevOps. If your team is using GitLab.com or GitLab Self-Managed to host your repositories, the GitKraken Git GUI can help streamline your workflow and make working with Git much more intuitive! Distribute this tutorial video to your team, and you’ll have everyone up and running with Git, GitLab and the GitKraken Git GUI. I believe the repo from Gitlab was added with https, can't find a way to change this, don't know if it's important. I'm running Windows 10 with git-bash and have followed the tutorial on Github to generate the keys and add them to the ssh-agent. Added the public one to my gitlab profile and can 'ssh -T git@gitlab.com' successfully.

Git legendary, my friends. GitKraken includes two legendary products that make devs more productive: the Git Client and Glo Boards!

Use the Git Client to visualize the history and changes to your repos in a beautiful graph that makes working with Git more intuitive.
