Git is powerful, but living in the terminal is not for everyone. SourceTree puts your repositories into a clear visual client. See branches, commits and changes at a glance, stage or discard work by file, hunk or single line, and handle stashing and picking commits between branches without memorising flags. It works with Git and Mercurial, connects with remote services, and it is free, which is why many teams use it to teach new developers version control.

Key Features

• Visual repository view with branching diagrams and commit history
• Stage and discard changes by file hunk or line
• Works with Git and Mercurial in one consistent desktop interface
• Support for Git Large File Storage submodules and Git flow branching
• Interactive rebase local commit search and a remote repository manager

How to Download

1. Download from the official site and choose the Mac download option there.

3. Launch the app, connect your repository hosting account, and clone or add your first project.

System Requirements

You need a Mac able to run the current release and enough space for local repositories. Atlassian publishes no detailed macOS list on the product page, so check its notes on older systems.
