#GitHubDesktop

This is one of the absolutely worst #usability things I've seen.

When I close #GitHubDesktop, it hangs for an indeterminate, looooooong amount of time, saying "oh I'm updating now, please don't do anything funny or we're both screwed". It doesn't say anything about how it's progressing. It's been crunching for a long time. Is it stuck? Is it working? Are we screwed anyway?
I'm a lil' ball of anxiety now, HELP
...oh it finally completed. Phew.

This is *always* a nice thing to see when I have to power down my laptop for travel. Nowadays I'm wiser. Always put shutting down GitHub Desktop in your calendar on the day before the trip, people!

This has been going on for half an hour now. 🤦‍♂️ They're texture files.

How can it take this long?!? I hate Git so much.

#Git #GitHub #GitHubDesktop

A confirmation dialog for discarding changes to 92 files.  No progress bar.  Just endlessly hanging my system.

Whelp … that was good run, .

Screenshot of the “About GitHub Desktop” dialog box as seen in the 3.3.12-beta3 release. Text at the top of the dialog box reads: “This operating system is no longer supported. Software updates have been disabled.”

So here's a lovely thing. There's no way to turn off auto-update on #GitHubDesktop. And it keeps trying to update to a version that is incompatible with my operating system. Which means that if I want to keep using it, I have to reinstall an old version every single time. Brilliant.

I was an #emacs #magit purist but #githubdesktop is actually kind of lovely in how smoothly you can cherry pick, merge, squash and re-order commits. Check out this demo of new features from GitHub Universe 2022: youtube.com/watch?v=qUYkRWGWnt

@KathyReid Since you've mentioned that none of the #GithubDesktop alternatives worked well so far for you (and for me too), have you tried any of the ones mentioned here yet? git-scm.com/downloads/guis

Seeing a few other people do this so I'll follow suit.

Here's a list of hashtags I'll regularly use:

Asking users of #Github and #GitHubDesktop: Does anyone else have problems to push (binary) files >~9 MB?

Like e.g. PDF?

My Github Destop (Mac, Win10) hangs up every time I try.

Although other Git Tools seem to have the same problem.

So, "is it just me?"

Die neue Version bringt High-Signal Notifications, um nicht unnötig abzulenken: Nur wichtige Neuerungen in einem Repository erscheinen als Benachrichtigung.
GitHub Desktop 3.0 konzentriert sich auf wichtige Benachrichtigungen

Anyone here uses, or has used, desktop.github.com ?

#git #GitHubDesktop

GitHub Desktop でチェリーピックが使えるようになってる、らしいので、はじめて使った。

なるほど、こら便利だ。

「コミットをゴニョゴニョして、どこかをコチョコチョするものだ」程度の認識はあったけど、もっとシンプルだったのね。

ブランチを切り替え忘れてファイルをコミットで困っとっと、みたいなときに「別ブランチにコミットを移動する機能」なのね。

cherry-pick が「気に入ったものをつまみ食いする」「お気にをコレクションする」みたいな意味なので、もっと煩雑な用途に使うものだと思ってた。

... ... コミット移動(commit-move)でいいじゃん。ダメなの

GitHub Desktop で、別ブランチのコミットをドラッグ&ドロップでコピーできるようになっとる。

いまさら気づいた。

ゆうて、チェリーピック童貞(チェリーボーイ)だけど。
