Comment on A Git client for simultaneous branches on top of your existing workflowparent

Comments

Two things. One is there is a commit dialog per virtual branch. You do a commit on a branch. The selection is all the files/hunks you see on that branch, or you can selectively commit parts of those changes (such as a add -i type commit). It's pretty much identical to how Git (or any other Git GUI) handles commit selection, except you can have more than one branch that you're working with, applied, at a time.

Also, GitButler, as far as I can think of, never causes normal git operations to fail. It doesn't put the project git repo in a state where git can't operate.

That's great news, and I'll play with it some more to see if I misunderstood the docs. If so there may well be no issue here. Thank you for clarifying.
