Re: Modern Git GUI

Every once in a while, someone comes and says "Git GUIs aren't as good as I'd expect, I'll write my own". The result is that we have a myriad of GUIs (see http://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/InterfacesFrontendsAndTools#Graphical_Interfaces ), many of them being half-finished and/or abandonned. I don't believe adding yet-another-one is going to improve the situation, and pick-one-and-improve-it is IMHO a much better approach.

I use mostly the command-line, so I couldn't make a detailed review of the existing, but tools like git-cola and a few others sound "modern" to me (Qt4 & co).

If you decide to go on with your project, either you want to carry it out alone, or you'll have to convince other developers to join. In the second case, a good starting point would be to explain why the other GUI are not good enough, and why you can't just contribute to them.
