TortoiseGit Overview
TortoiseGit is a free, open-source Git client for Windows that integrates directly into File Explorer rather than running as a separate application. It adds icon overlays that show the status of files and folders, and a right-click context menu for common Git actions — commit, pull, push, branch, merge, diff, log, and more — so you manage repositories from the file system you already use. It includes graphical tools for viewing history, resolving conflicts, and comparing revisions. It relies on a Git installation underneath and is popular with Windows developers who prefer shell integration. The offline installer installs without a network connection. It supports submodules, stashes, and Git LFS, and includes graphical tools for interactive rebase and cherry-picking.
