GitHub Desktop
Your GitHub workflow in one native app
GitHub Desktop is a seamless way to contribute to projects on GitHub and GitHub
Enterprise.
Start a project
You’ll find all the projects you’re working on listed in the sidebar. If you’re
starting a new project, use the repository drop down menu to create a new
repository or clone an existing one directly from GitHub.com.
Branch off
Branches are essential to proposing changes and reviewing code on GitHub—and
they’re always available in the top left corner of the repository view. Just
select the current branch to switch branches or create a new one.
Craft the perfect commit
View a diff of your uncommitted changes, and form the perfect commit by
selecting the files—or even the specific lines—that make up a change. Enter the
summary and description, then commit.
See your history
Visualize your changes and commits in the comparison graph. You can select
commits on the graph to navigate through the history of your local branches.
Create a pull request
Once you’re happy with your commits, you can open a pull request for review and
discussion without leaving GitHub Desktop or touching the command line.
Merge and deploy
Browse commits on local and remote branches to quickly and clearly see what
changes still need to be merged. You can also merge your code to the master
branch for deployment right from the app.
