GitKraken como alternativa Linux a GitHub Desktop

Actualizado el

Nuestra opinión

GitKraken can replace GitHub Desktop for users who want a richer visual interface and integrated issue tracking, especially on Linux. It covers most everyday tasks—cloning, branching, committing, pushing, pulling, viewing history, resolving conflicts—and adds a built‑in editor and Glo Boards. It is best for developers who prefer drag‑and‑drop Git operations and want to keep GitHub workflow inside one app. It is less suitable for users who only need a lightweight, no‑frills client or who rely on GitHub Desktop’s simple issue integration.

Abrir tus archivos de GitHub Desktop

GitHub Desktop stores its data in a local SQLite database and a settings JSON file. GitKraken does not import these files directly. To migrate, you will need to re‑clone repositories and recreate any custom settings or workflows manually.

Pasar de GitHub Desktop a GitKraken, paso a paso

  1. Export the list of repositories from GitHub Desktop (e.g., copy URLs).
  2. Install GitKraken from the official website or Flathub.
  3. Create a new project in GitKraken and paste each repository URL to clone.
  4. Re‑create any custom branch or tag settings within GitKraken’s UI.
