- When our team switched to MAC laptops , we worked on getting the tools friendly with MAC.
-One of those tools was Git tower which we use in integration with Gitlab.
- Git tower has been giving us the best experience by providing us the client which is intuitive , has a good intellisense and gives undo feature.
- It also has a great UI with which we can manage our gitlab repos easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Sometimes, the pre-commit check fails, and then we need to go back to command-line utility.
- A --no-verify option would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its clear interface simplifies getting started with Git. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only real downside is that Tower can’t take the place of a basic, fundamental understanding of Git. Which isn’t Tower’s fault. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The app is very comfortable and easy to use. You can quickly access every feature you need. I used other software like Fork or Github Desktop, they're overly simplified and do not offer some crucial features. Tower is both easy to use yet full of features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing that I dislike. Everything is perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Git Tower is a beautifully crafted Mac application, with the power to go with it. I know my way around the command line and I could achieve the same results using it, but why waste time? Everything is easier using Tower, rebases are a breeze, the undo implementation is superb, repository management is much easier. And it even supports Git-flow! All in all, an amazing application, and a must have for me, to the point that I pay for from my own pocket. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can't think of any real downsides other than relying on it means you can get a bit rusty with the command line. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Best part is that we have option to run our Git command through git tower ui and it helps to resolve merge conflict and commit history. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is no proper place to see latest release and product onboarding Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Git Tower looks and feels like a native Mac application, because it is one. Further than that, the UI actually makes sense and works well. It's fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are a couple of features I'm missing from my personal workflow (good support for git pair/duet, allowing --no-verify on push), and sometimes you have to drop back to the command line when a pre-push or pre-commit hook fails—but you always can, because it doesn't do anything funny, its job is to translate low-level git commands into a usable GUI without any magic and it does it well.

The UI is clean and effective, performance is excellent and it's very stable.
Support is great and it's updated very often so it keeps up with the latest advancements and it's often introducing new features.
Partial stashing is amazing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can't think of anything I dislike about Tower.
May I suggest adding an integrated diffing tool? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's a useful, gorgeous and NATIVE macOS app 🙂.
It helps to do make git readable and wel understandable. Have you ever imagined using the reflog in a terminal, changing commits history order or some complex operations like them in a terminal ? Or have you ever did one of them in a terminal ? What a hell! But Tower make those operations as easy as a drag and drop! It's impressive!
The CMD+Z feature is the most perfect usage of the reflog you can imagine without having to know about the reflog !
It have been saved my life more than once! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing really but I hope for some new enhancements.
For example being able to comment a change on a piece of code in a PR or follow state of a branch. Once a branch is in PR I'd like to see and icon/emoji reflecting that state in branch list. Once it is merged/blocked etc.. an icon/emoji could reflect that state and we could so be able to filter branches by their states. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Each action is naturally integrated with macOS. (Ie. Cmd+Z to cancel, drag'n'drop)
And it's really helpful to avoid common mistake and improve everyday workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If it can be more integrated with text editors, it can be better. A better code syntax colorization can be helpful. And more integration with GitHub PRs can also be a good think for a complete review process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The coding interface and the extra options it provides to user reliable use,The AI works very well for us while typing and I enjoy coding in this application very much Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The product does not have any drawbacks as of now ,I feel it needs to increase the efficiency in some of the times going forward and we can enjoy while coding . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
