## How to use

**To use this tool, you need to install Git first.**

You can download the latest stable from [Releases](https://github.com/sourcegit-scm/sourcegit/releases/latest) or download workflow artifacts from [Github Actions](https://github.com/sourcegit-scm/sourcegit/actions) to try this app based on each commits.

For **Windows** users:

**MSYS Git is NOT supported**. Please use official [Git for Windows](https://git-scm.com/download/win) instead.

For **macOS** users:

* Download `SourceGit.osx-x64.zip` or `SourceGit.osx-arm64.zip` from Releases. `x64` for Intel and `arm64` for Apple Silicon.
* Move `SourceGit.app` to `Applications` folder.
* Make sure your mac trusts all software from anywhere. For more information, search `spctl --master-disable`.
* Make sure [git-credential-manager](https://github.com/git-ecosystem/git-credential-manager/releases) is installed on your mac.
* You may need to run `sudo xattr -cr /Applications/SourceGit.app` to make sure the software works.

For **Linux** users:

* `xdg-open` must be installed to support open native file manager.
* Make sure [git-credential-manager](https://github.com/git-ecosystem/git-credential-manager/releases) is installed on your linux, and it requires `ttf-mscorefonts-installer` installed.
* Maybe you need to set environment variable `AVALONIA_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS`. See https://github.com/AvaloniaUI/Avalonia/wiki/Configuring-X11-per-monitor-DPI. 
* Modify `SourceGit.desktop.template` (replace SOURCEGIT_LOCAL_FOLDER with real path) and move it into `~/.local/share/applications`.
