GitMaster 🖥️

A lightning-fast, native Desktop Git GUI client designed for developers who value performance and minimalism.

Unlike heavy, memory-hungry Electron-based Git clients, GitMaster is built from the ground up using C++20, Qt6 for a fluid native user interface, and libgit2 for raw, asynchronous Git operations. It offers a lightweight footprint with zero compromise on power.
