Nautilus Git integration

  • 772

Is there any equivalent to TortoiseSVN but for Ubuntu / Git? I'd like to integrate Git commands to Nautilus.

    RabbitVCS integrates Git into Nautilus. It is available for Ubuntu from a PPA.

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rabbitvcs/ppa
sudo apt-get update

    For 11.04 and earlier:

    sudo apt-get install rabbitvcs-nautilus

    For 11.10 and later:

    sudo apt-get install rabbitvcs-nautilus3

    You should reload Nautilus after!

  2. This has been proposed already on Ubuntu braninstorm and on GNOME-Look.org but no code seems to be available at the moment.

    There is however a GNOME GUI front-end for Git called Giggle which is available in the Ubuntu 10.04 repositories (pre-packaged for other distributions as well, see the web page): apt-get install giggle.

  3. I don't know of any Nautilus extensions for git. There is a set of nautilus scripts but that isn't quite the same as the integration you get with RabbitVCS for svn or bzr-gtk for bzr.

  4. Here you go: https://github.com/bil-elmoussaoui/nautilus-git/ Works with both Nautilus & Nemo on Gtk3.14+ enter image description here

    Not perfect, does not implement a lot of things but help/ideas are welcome!
