Surprised to see they kept Tauri. In our experience of using Tauri, it has been a significant source of compatibility and performance issues related to it's use of WebKit and WebKitGTK. So much so that we have started an effort of migr

We will remove the hook constraint as soon as we complete this https://github.com/gitbutlerapp/gitbutler/issues/11866 For the Claude question, the CLI ships a skill, set it up with `but skill install`. I hope

The app has a built-in mechanism for going back in time (an operations log) which can be used for undoing situations that should not arise in the first place. It can be accessed via the app (there's a history tab) as well as via the CL

You are right - it is something we did intentionally, but I would like to learn more from your use case - what is the reason to prefer isolation of changes? Is it the case that you wish to have multiple agents working on the same task and t

(co-founder of gb here) I am really sorry for the frustration - the app should do better and we will do better. In the past few months we have been putting a very deliberate effort to eliminate all conditions from which such poor experience

(co-founder of GitButler here) We chose not to use separate git worktrees under the hood for this functionality. Let me try to break down why, maybe there's an opportunity for me to learn more here. In my head I separate between use ca

We have been using Tauri for about a year (a desktop app) and I am very happy with our choice. What I initially found attractive was the smaller binary sizes. Over time I have come to really appreciate their stance on security and implement

I think you are right that our documentation does not sufficiently communicate what the application does especially in various corner cases. For my own sake, allow me to articulate the core value proposition once more. GitButler's virt

This limitation stems from the fact that GB introduces an additional dimension of versioning on top of Git. One way of thinking of what it does with virtual branches is like "multiplexing" multiple branches onto the same working d

This article resonated with me be because I have also thought of branches as something ephemeral, with the ultimate goal of packaging and delivering a change to "prod". Perhaps this has to do with the fact that I have mostly worke

Currently GitButler only generates commit messages in this way (with some config options for style e.g. semantic commits). With that said, generating PR descriptions is something I was tinkering with this morning. (disclaimer: I'm a Gi
