What is Fork?
Fork is a graphical Git client for working with repositories on Mac. Its commit list brings branches, remotes and stashes into the same workspace, while history and blame views help trace changes to a file. You can fetch, pull and push, stage or unstage changes line by line, and inspect changes before committing.
For more involved history work, Fork provides visual interactive rebase to edit, reorder and squash commits, plus a built-in merge-conflict resolver. The publisher also lists Git LFS, submodules and Reflog recovery among its features.
Fork is paid software with a free evaluation, not a permanently free Git client. This entry links to the publisher homepage's Mac DMG, named Fork-2.66.7.dmg. Softonic lists a different version, 2.71; the linked publisher package is identified here as 2.66.7 rather than described as the latest release.
What it offers
- Browse the commit list, branches, remotes and stashes in a graphical repository workspace.
- Fetch, pull, push, create branches and tags, cherry-pick and revert commits.
- Stage or unstage changes line by line; inspect file history and blame.
- Edit, reorder and squash commits with visual interactive rebase, and resolve merge conflicts with the built-in resolver.
- Work with submodules and Git LFS, and recover lost commits through Reflog.
Good to know
- The free download is for evaluation; the publisher requires a purchased license for long-term use.
- The publisher homepage links a 2.66.7 DMG while Softonic lists 2.71. This download is not represented as the latest release.
