About Ungit
Ungit is an open-source Git front end that you start on your own machine and use through a web browser. It draws commits and branches as a graph, so branching, merging and rebasing can be done by working with the visual history instead of remembering commands.
Because the interface runs in a browser, it works on any platform that can run it. The project documents a plugin system and how to use it as a merge tool, and has a long commit history with a large community on GitHub.
Strengths
- Clear visual graph of commits and branches
- Browser interface works on any platform
- Plugin support for extending the interface
Limitations
- Needs to be started locally before use in the browser
- Browser-based interface rather than a native desktop app
