GitKraken supports pull request templates from your GitHub, GitLab, and Azure DevOps (including legacy VSTS URLs). Once your pull request templates are commited to your remote, the template field will appear when you create a pull request in GitKraken. Git vs GitKraken: What are the differences? Git: Fast, scalable, distributed revision control system.Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency; GitKraken: Git GUI Client for Windows Mac and Linux built on Electron.The downright luxurious Git client for Windows, Mac and Linux. Azure DevOps Azure DevOps provides unlimited private Git hosting, cloud build for continuous integration, agile planning, and release management for continuous delivery to the cloud and on-premises. Includes broad IDE support. GitKraken allows you to connect to Azure DevOps (formerly VSTS), which will help you find repos on Azure DevOps when cloning.

Here's the TLDR of the best features in GitKraken.

1. Set up Profiles

Multiple

If you have personal projects you wish to separate from work repos–or if you need to connect to multiple instances of GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, etc.–then set up Profiles.

Each profile stores different app preferences and Git config information, which makes it easier to switch context.

Multiple Profiles is a GitKraken Pro only feature.

2. Use the Fuzzy Finder

As you type, the Fuzzy Finder will find the most relevant commands, allowing you to perform many actions without clicking. Here are a few examples:

4. Create, Open and Edit Files in the Built-In Code Editor

To create a file directly in GitKraken, use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl/Cmd + P to open Fuzzy Finder, type Create File, and then type the name of your file before hitting Enter.

The code editor will automatically open so you can jump right in and start working on your project.

You can also right click the empty space in the Commit Panel and click the Create File context menu option.

Using Gitkraken With Azure Devops

6. Integrate with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps

GitKraken allows you to authenticate with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps (previously VSTS), which will help you find repos when cloning or adding your remotes.

Benefits

Gitkraken Azure Devops Training

  • Create repositories on GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket/Azure DevOps including .gitignore and license
  • Save authentication into profiles
  • Clone from remote repo list
  • Add remotes
  • Create and view pull requests

7. Build Status, Assignees, and Reviewers in PRs

If you are using the GitLab or GitHub integration, you may also add a pull request assignee and label(s) to your pull request. GitKraken will then pass these values onto GitLab or GitHub when the pull request is created.

If you are using the GitHub integration, you may also add reviewers and multiple assignees to a pull request.

Additionally for GitHub pull requests, this tooltip will show assignees, labels, reviewers, and build status.

8. File History and File Blame

File History and File Blame information display in the same view.

To access either option, first click on a commit in the graph. Then right click a file to access File History or File Blame.

File History shows that file's commit history on the left.

Use the top toggle button to switch between Diff View, which shows the selected commit's changes to the file, and the File View, which shows the file's state at that commit, including the blame info.

9. Open Terminal
