Improve Productivity and Simplify Version Control

November 25, 2024
GitLens for VS Code V16.0 introduces a completely revamped Home view, which consolidates key actions and insights into a single, intuitive interface.

GitKraken is a suite of developer tools built around Git, a popular version control system. It offers a graphical user interface (GUI) that allows developers to interact with Git repositories visually instead of relying on the command line. This simplifies complex Git workflows like resolving merge conflicts and visualizing code history, making Git more accessible and efficient for developers of all experience levels.

The GitLens for VS Code V16.0 release (available as part of GitKraken) adds a completely revamped Home view which includes an enhanced interface with distinct sections for streamlined workflows. The Active section provides real-time visibility into your current repository, branch, and repository state, along with quick actions for syncing (push, pull, fetch), switching repositories or branches, and reviewing working directory changes. The Launchpad section highlights pull requests requiring review, those blocked, or ready to merge, while offering tools to start new branches or worktrees, or to generate one from existing issues. A Recent section enables users to efficiently return to prior work by displaying recent branches, worktrees, and pull requests with activity within a selected timeframe.

To see a full list of what's new in V16.0, see our release notes.

GitLens for VS Code is available as part of GitKraken which is licensed per user as an Annual license with free updates and technical support. See our GitKraken licensing page for full details.
