SourceTree is a Windows desktop client that allows you to open, explore and modify GitHub projects. You are able to clone elements, build new repositories and easily publish them online.

Online repository management

This program can act as a client for Git and Mercurial tools, and it also enables you to easily make changes to your projects. In contrast to other programming tools like PowerShell, this application has an intuitive graphical user interface, with streamlined windows and function buttons.

You may open several repositories from local or remote folders and view them as a list in the dedicated column. Moreover, you can easily switch between them by double clicking or by selecting the tabs at the top of the window.

Collaborate on project development

The software supports DVCS or distributed version control system, which allows you and your team to work simultaneously on the same project. The changes and the names of the authors are displayed in the activity log table.

Additionally, you have the option to view Git flow changes, as well as see existing items and new branches. It is possible to perform interactive rebasing of the selected items, add tags and merge files. Furthermore, you are able to highlight differences between versions and resolve conflicts.
