GitLens

25 reviews

GitLens is the most popular Git extension for Visual Studio Code. It supercharges the Git capabilities built into your IDE. GitLens unlocks the untapped knowledge within each repository to help visualize code authorship by leveraging CodeLens and Git blame to expose your Git history at every line of code. Seamlessly navigate and explore Git repositories, gain valuable insights via powerful comparison commands, and unleash the full power of Git without breaking your development flow. While GitLens is powerful and feature-rich, it is also highly customizable to meet your specific needs — find code lens intrusive or the current line blame annotation distracting — no problem, it is quick and easy to turn them off or change how they behave.

Git Client and DevEx Platform

✅ GitKraken offers a visually rich and technically robust suite of Git tools designed to streamline source control workflows for individuals and teams. The core GitKraken Desktop client stands out for its commit graph visualization, making it straightforward to interpret complex branching and merging histories. The UI is modern and intuitive, supporting both dark and light themes, and provides drag-and-drop actions for operations like merge, rebase, and push, which simplifies intricate Git commands into accessible interactions. ✅ The platform supports seamless integrations with major Git hosting services including GitHub, GitLab (and self-hosted), Bitbucket, and Azure DevOps. This enables direct repository management, pull request creation, and code review workflows without context switching between tools. The built-in code editor features syntax highlighting, diff split view, and search capabilities, allowing for quick edits and conflict resolution within the same environment. ✅ GitKraken’s multi-profile support is useful for managing work and personal projects separately. The tool also includes advanced Git features such as Gitflow, Git Hooks, LFS, and submodule management, catering to more complex repository requirements. For teams, Glo Boards provide integrated issue and task tracking, with real-time sync to GitHub Issues, custom workflows, and granular permissions, reducing the need for external project management tools. ✅ The ecosystem extends beyond the desktop client: GitLens for VS Code enhances in-editor Git visibility and history navigation, while the GitKraken CLI and browser extension offer flexibility for command-line and web-based workflows. The platform’s AI-powered features aim to accelerate code reviews and unblock developer workflows, reflecting a focus on developer experience (DevEx) at scale.

GIT Supercharged

• Deep Git Integration: GitLens provides advanced Git capabilities directly within Visual Studio Code, including in-editor blame annotations, rich hovers, and CodeLens features. This integration makes it possible to see who last modified a line or block of code, when it was changed, and the commit message associated with each change. • Commit and File History Visualization: The extension offers interactive visualizations such as commit graphs and timeline views, making it easier to trace the evolution of files and repositories. Navigating through commit history and comparing file changes is straightforward, supporting both granular code review and broader project analysis. • Contextual Annotations: GitLens overlays contextual information directly in the code editor, such as inline blame and status bar details, giving immediate insights into authorship and recent changes without leaving the editing environment. • AI-Powered Features (Preview): Recent updates have introduced AI-assisted workflows, including automated commit message generation, pull request description drafting, and changelog creation. These features are designed to reduce manual overhead for repetitive Git tasks. • Collaboration Tools: GitLens supports team workflows with features for code review, merge conflict resolution, and integration with remote repositories. The Home View acts as a workflow hub, consolidating issues, pull requests, and code tasks in a single panel to minimize context switching. • Branch and Stash Management: Visual tools for branch graphing and stash management simplify complex version control scenarios, making it easier to handle multiple workstreams and experimental changes. • Customizability: The extension is highly configurable, allowing adaptation to personal or team preferences for annotations, workflows, and UI elements. • Open Source and Widely Adopted: GitLens is open source and has a large user base, with over 18 million installs and 120 million downloads, indicating a mature and well-supported tool.
