## What it is
SourceGit is a free, open-source cross-platform GUI client for Git built in C#. It provides visual commit graphs and full Git command coverage including rebase, cherry-pick, GitFlow, Git LFS, bisect, and AI-assisted commit messages.

## Use cases
- visualize git commit history as a graph
- free git gui client for windows mac and linux
- run interactive rebase and cherry-pick from a gui
- manage git branches stashes and submodules visually
- generate commit messages with ai
- create pull requests on github gitlab gitea from desktop
- diff files and images between git revisions

## When to choose
- you want a free open-source alternative to paid Git GUIs like Fork or Tower
- you need one Git client that works consistently across Windows, macOS, and Linux
- you prefer visual commit graphs and GUI access to advanced Git operations like bisect and interactive rebase
- you use GitFlow, Git LFS, or multiple remotes with SSH

## When to avoid
- you only need command-line Git and prefer terminal workflows
- you require a fully supported Linux build outside Debian 12 (X11/Wayland testing is limited)
- you need deep IDE-integrated Git tooling rather than a standalone app
- you need Git version older than 2.25.1 compatibility
