Any recommandations for a GUI git client that does work good enough
on slow machines, like a Raspberry Pi? Preferably without any of
the newer Gnome/GTK shit.
I have heard many good things about magit for EMACS. Haven't used it
that much because the standard 'git gui' works for me.
I found 'git gui' too just before I read your mail. I didn't expect much from a Tk app, but it works for me too. Simple to understand and very lightweight. I have the impression the older the GUI libs are, the better they work with X11 remote display.
I also download lazygit, a Go TUI program with mouse support. Looks good too.
I'm sure some people love magit, but emacs (or vi) is not my thing.
I do occasionally use gitk, but that I think really only allows you to browse git history and not much more.
and it's not very good at that.
