GitNub is a Mac-native Gitk-like application built with RubyCocoa for quickly viewing information about a git repository. It is launched from the shell via a `nub` helper command inside a git directory.
Use cases
- visualize git repository history on mac
- gitk alternative for macos
- quickly inspect a git repo with a native mac app
- browse git commits graphically
- view git branch history in a gui
When to choose
- you are on macOS (Leopard-era) with RubyCocoa installed and want a lightweight native git history viewer
- you prefer a Gitk-style tool with a Mac look and feel
When to avoid
- you need a maintained tool - the last release was in 2015 and it targets old macOS/RubyCocoa
- you are on Linux or Windows
- you need modern git features or full repository management beyond history viewing
