I just downloaded but I can't find the notifications feature; it's not showing the app on my menubar.

@brunolemos Fork tends to not disturb people too much. GitHub notifications icon will appear when you receive first notification.

@dankhnt Hm, yeah I'd totally prefer to have that all the time there

@dankhnt how does this differ from sourcetree?

I use it for over one year and see stable improvements over time, definitely recommend!

Pros:

- Free

- Native, good looking Mac OS app

- regular updated with new features

Cons:

- missing option to resolve multiple conflicts at once

A great app overall, with just three shortcomings: * no way to change app font-size scale. Fonts and all the UI are scaled too small on my external monitor! * to watch the files currently modified and their diffs, I have to click on "Changes" and thus hide the "All commits" view. I think those two screens could exist in the same pane, like other git GUIs do. * no option to squash commits. Otherwise, this is my new git GUI of choice.

@dankhnt Really liking Fork so far! Any plans to allow squashing commits? I tried highlighting multiple commits (which worked and was intuitive), but couldn't find any way to squash/fixup after that. I really appreciate the "density" of the Fork UI... an option to reduce the leading (line spacing) of list items (in the left side bar, the commit list, etc.) would be great. It especially feels like the leading in the diff view could be a lot tighter so that I could see more of the diff on-screen at once (maybe add a "Vertical Spacing" slider like iTerm's font selection dialog has?) In any case, very much looking forward to seeing where Fork goes!

@dankhnt thanks for amazing product, switched from SourceTree and I'm super happy. One thing is bothering me — what is your business model? I looks very nice for being free software.

Spending a lot of time on git everyday, I'm always on the quest of the best productive Git client. Having tried command lines, Tower, SourceTree, Kraken, etc Fork ends up to have the best features for the productivity: fast start time like Tower, good diff viewer as SourceTree, quick merge/rebase, etc.

Pros:

Best git tool on Mac! Have best features from Tower and SourceTree.

Cons:

More shortcuts 😎

Fork is simply the best git gui I’ve ever used! Do you have any plan for the pricing in the future Dan? I think a lot of people (me included) are ready to pay for such cool tool!
