  • delta

  • sublime_merge

    Issue tracker for Sublime Merge

  • I think sublime merge is pretty close to the optimal git GUI, https://www.sublimemerge.com/. It uses standard git commands and terminology and allows you to add custom git commands to the GUI. Unlike Sourcetree is cross platform for Windows/Linux/Mac and includes a merge tool. I think command line git and Sublime Merge git translate back and pretty easily.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
