The tool is great - good job. Especially the UI I like. Oh - and the performance compared to GitKraken ...
Thanks for this list, and glad the UI lands well. All four are in 0.13.0, out now.
Fetch on tab switch was already happening, it runs on every switch and again when the window gets focus, it was just silent. The status bar now says "Fetched 2m ago" next to the branch so you can see it, hover for the exact time and cadence. If you ever don't see new commits arrive, check Settings → Git → Auto fetch isn't set to 0.
Pull follows pull.rebase from your git config now, and the Pull button has a menu to pick merge or rebase for a single pull.
Files in a commit have a right-click menu with Show in Finder / file manager, copy path, open in an external app, and blame.
For the IDE one, Settings → Git → External editor lists what's installed (VS Code, Cursor, Zed, Sublime, the JetBrains IDEs, Xcode, GNOME Builder, Kate). The toolbar button opens the repo in the one you picked and its menu offers all of them, so not one editor like GitKraken. If your editor isn't detected, tell me how it's installed and I'll add it.

But did it fetch all remotes ? - for a fork this would be really handy.
Thanks for beeing so responsive !

Finder is not there on linux - it opens the desktops "File explorer" (in my case GNOMEs nautilus)
VS code and external app are already really nice. I miss still zed

Forget my last comment about zed- EVERYTHING is PERFECT !
You are the man !
Fetch only hit the first remote, you're right. The next version walks all of them, so upstream on a fork moves by itself, and that includes the fetch that runs when you switch to a tab.
Finder wording is fixed too, it says "Show in file manager" off macOS.
And Zed: on Linux it's often installed as zeditor (Arch, Fedora) or as a Flatpak, and I only looked for zed on PATH. Both are picked up now, along with Flatpak installs of VS Code, Sublime, GNOME Builder and Kate. If yours is installed another way, tell me the path and I'll add that too.
Thanks for testing so quickly, this is exactly the feedback I need.

Since I can install it now over deb-get - I can get it really fast :D

What problem does this solve in your daily Git work?
