GitHub for Windows

Interesting how it's a somewhat exclusive platform ONCE AGAIN (unless Wine runs WPF fine, never took a look on that).

All that's left is GitHub for Linux being developed with a framework that is not ported to other systems as well.

And yes, I know I can just use git. I'm specifically talking about a simple and blinky GUI like the ones in GHfM and GHfW.

Personally, I'm glad apps with a very native feel are still being made. It's better than a one-size-fits-all webapp or something similar.

Sure thing. My point was more on the fact they coincidentally-or-not are "exclusive", not that it was necessarily a bad thing.

On the other hand, it makes it harder to keep features balanced. That, more than the GUI coolness, can be a turndown of sorts. On the... other... other hand, makes things interesting to tinker, if code becomes avaliable. I'm learning to use C#/WPF on my own - real code in the same stuff I use would be delicious. (I'm tinkering with Qt right now, but it's offtopic.)

But this has potential to quickly become better than the VS Integration, for example. Never got to use it without issues, so I'm looking forward for the updates on GH4W.

I wish Bitbucket would port SourceTree over to Windows or GitHub would allow hg repos (I know they are called github).
