Turtle – Git Client for Gnome
- jsiepkes 3y agoCool and useful project! I'm guessing the name is a reference to the popular (well, at least back in the days...) TortoiseSVN application which did something similar for Subversion?
- Zambyte 3y agoThere is also a TortoiseGit that is based on TortoiseSVN https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TortoiseGit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TortoiseGit https://tortoisegit.org/ https://tortoisegit.org/
- holsta 3y agoIt's a reference to the animal used on the cover of the Subversion book, like how the major text on compilers has a dragon, and is referred to as "the dragon book". See the bottom text on https://svnbook.red-bean.com/ https://svnbook.red-bean.com/
- rsolva 3y agoWow, this looks very neat and usefull! I have been using lazygit on the terminal for some years, but do occasionally miss a real GUI for git. Somewhat related: I have seen a lot of GNOME / GTK4 apps popping up lately, often distributed as flatpaks. It feels like more and more devs trust the platform and are having fun developing for it!
- PlutoIsAPlanet 3y agoFlatpak has been quite deeply integrated into the GNOME/GTK development process, as well as GNOME itself, it's effectively the de-facto GNOME package format at this point. Also, libadwaita makes it easier to develop applications, it unties the platform from GTKs very slow release cycle.
