Nautilus Git integration

Question

Is there any equivalent to TortoiseSVN but for Ubuntu / Git? I'd like to integrate Git commands to Nautilus.

I have installed RabbitVCS on Ubuntu 11.10 via sudo apt-get install rabbitvcs-nautilus3 But how do I run it? — Khurram Majeed, Mar 06 '12 at 18:43

RabbitVCS integrates Git into Nautilus. It is available for Ubuntu from a PPA.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rabbitvcs/ppa
sudo apt-get update

For 11.04 and earlier:

sudo apt-get install rabbitvcs-nautilus

For 11.10 and later:

sudo apt-get install rabbitvcs-nautilus3

You should reload Nautilus after!

RabbitVCS does not work with Nautilus 3.8, the version shipped with Ubuntu 13.10. – Luís de Sousa Jan 04 '14 at 15:06
This software just plain sucks. There's no more polite way I can put it. I considered fixing it, but [it can't be done](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/you_can%27t_polish_a_turd). – Marc.2377 Jun 15 '19 at 04:18

This has been proposed already on Ubuntu braninstorm and on GNOME-Look.org but no code seems to be available at the moment.

There is however a GNOME GUI front-end for Git called Giggle which is available in the Ubuntu 10.04 repositories (pre-packaged for other distributions as well, see the web page): apt-get install giggle.

But does Giggle do nautilus integration? I didn't see how. – Eyal Nov 05 '12 at 14:53
It doesn't. And Giggle is broken. [Gitg](https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Gitg) is better, but it also doesn't integrate with Nautilus. – Marc.2377 Jun 15 '19 at 04:19

I don't know of any Nautilus extensions for git. There is a set of nautilus scripts but that isn't quite the same as the integration you get with RabbitVCS for svn or bzr-gtk for bzr.

https://github.com/tapio/nautilus-git-scripts.git is a quite nice. Thanks for the pointer. It fails to handle multiple files for rename/delete, but that's a very good start. – Benoît Oct 31 '11 at 19:11

Here you go: https://github.com/bil-elmoussaoui/nautilus-git/ Works with both Nautilus & Nemo on Gtk3.14+

Not perfect, does not implement a lot of things but help/ideas are welcome!
