GitHub Desktop 1.0

Yeah, I'll be sticking to the old Mac desktop app too. Visual bugs with the commit timeline notwithstanding, it's solid and smooth. The electron replacement is comparatively janky.

If they ever EoL the old true native Github Desktop, I'll probably switch full time to Fork, which is native Cocoa and generally great. I already use it a lot, but there are times when Github Desktop does things a little better.

Fork developer here. Could you share what features you miss so I could implement them? You can use the feedback button on the toolbar in Fork or contact me directly by email: support at git-fork.com.

Hey, already love Fork after just a few minutes. Rebase support, stashes, sub-modules, tabs... this is fantastic :)

You may actually get me to delete SourceTree, which is a high bar to clear. Despite all the major issues with SourceTree, like locking the main thread for 3 minutes, pinning the CPU to 100% just because a file was staged, and refreshing the diff view 100 times in a single minute, I haven't been able to switch away from yet.

P.S. your Cartfile is being copied into the resources folder :)

Thanks a lot for this link!

I've been using either the command line or GitKraken, but it's always nice to see a new tool :)
