Tortilla brings Git into the file manager
A native Git client for Windows and Linux, with file-manager menus, repository history, and pull-request and CI details from several hosting platforms.
- For
- Windows and Linux users working with Git repositories
- Worth noticing
- The UI selects Win32, GTK 4, GTK 3, or Qt 6 to match the Linux desktop; Windows file badges show modified, added, or conflicted files.
Field notes
Repository work is available from file-manager context menus across Explorer and several Linux managers, while the full log supports filtering, branch-label movement, interactive rebase, blame, bisect, reflog, worktrees, and submodules. The page says the interface uses platform-native widgets—Win32 on Windows and GTK or Qt on Linux—and can call external diff tools such as WinMerge, Beyond Compare, Meld, and KDiff3; Windows also gets file-status badges that are not yet available on Linux.
