"Versatile Git UI software tool"
What do you like best about SourceTree?

One of the benefits of using SourceTree is that it is available for both Windows and Mac, making it a versatile tool for developers using different operating systems. It also supports Git flow, which is a branching model designed to simplify the development process, particularly for larger teams Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SourceTree?

One issue is that it can be a bit slow and resource-intensive, especially when working with large repositories. Additionally, some users have reported issues with the user interface, such as small fonts and non-intuitive menus Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best free Git GUI"
What do you like best about SourceTree?

Ease of use. The ability to manage versions in software development is critical to functioning in an efficient manner and Sourcetree gives me that ability. I am able to clone projects, commit, pull, and push with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SourceTree?

Branching and checking out branches is not easy for a beginner to understand in the beginning. Also have found too many branches can't be created with one large project or code will get "lost." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best for visualizing branches"
What do you like best about SourceTree?

This is the best Git GUI because "out of the box", it includes a feature for visualizing branches. You can download extensions for other things to add this functionality, but SourceTree does it naturally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SourceTree?

I've had trouble connecting this to GitHub at times. It's built to work more with Bitbucket. I previously had an unresolvable issue with it repeatedly asking for validation from GitHub. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Tool that makes version control more interactive and user friendly"
What do you like best about SourceTree?

If you are new to version control and take time to understand working with the terminal, then SourceTree makes it easier for users as it provides a graphical interface of our repository and all the functions that we might use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SourceTree?

One of the things that I dislike in SourceTree is that whenever we change the password for the repository platform, it can be either github or bitbucket and when we try accessing git through it doesn't directly ask us to enter the new password instead it throws some different error which make no sense, especially for the users who are new to it.

"Perfect tool that easily helps to visualise version control system"
What do you like best about SourceTree?

The very first tool for version control system I used is Sourcetree. The best part is you can visually understand your commits, branches, merges. It helped me in resolving merge conflicts with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SourceTree?

The one issue I faced while using sourcetree is whenever you update your git password you need to understand some of the errors it throws and then you need to follow the steps. Instead I would expect to update in simple tool settings. Everything else is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The most use source code management client tool"
What do you like best about SourceTree?

Source Tree provides a straightforward and concise user interface. Any novice user can quickly adapt to it. What I like the best about Source Tree is the visualization of the source code branching. The most impressive feature of the Source Tree is the brach visualization that would make Source Tree top of the others. It support multiple git hosted servers such as github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc. Creating repository cloning them and merging confilit are really easy woth Source Tree. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SourceTree?

Source Tree has all the features that any source code management client should have. There is nothing to dislike. It is a feature-rich tool for any what to do source code management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An essential tool for developers"
What do you like best about SourceTree?

Its visual commit history makes it easy to see how your code has evolved over time. This feature is particularly useful when working on large projects, as it provides a clear overview of how different parts of the codebase have been modified. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SourceTree?

Issues with SourceTree's performance on larger repositories, as it can become slow and unwieldy. Additionally, its user interface makes it less intuitive or harder to navigate than other Git clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User friendly"
What do you like best about SourceTree?

The SourceTree interface is user-friendly and provides an easy-to-use visual representation of the commit history and branch structure of a project. Also it supports support for popular Git and Mercurial hosting platforms like Bitbucket, GitHub, and GitLab making it icing on the cake Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SourceTree?

Although interface is user-friendly, it can take some time for users who are new to Git or Mercurial to learn how to use it effectively. So having more descriptive videos for new users can help in solving that issue like some seminars or a course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
