I really want to like it, but since some years ago it stopped accepting my SSH keys.. Tried with Gitlab tokens as password, but nothing, tried with 4096 rsa, but nothing... I guess it only works with public repos... such a shame.
Had no support for ed25519 ssh keys which are essential for me.
Does not work any more.
A simple, abandoned Git client. Nice UI, and performance is not as bad as other reviews suggest, however there are a few major issues. New SSH key formats (e.g. those required by GitHub) are not supported. Large files (100+ MB) can cause fatal errors leaving you unable to pull. If you need to use Git in a very basic way, then this is likely sufficient. If you have more robust requirements, strongly consider Termux with Git and OpenSSH instead (free, fast, open source, and industry grade).
Couldn't clone a github repo. Seems neglected.
Awesome app and one of a kind. Super nice to just check on repositories
Now it doesn't work at all
