GitHub Desktop for MAC

GitHub Desktop lets developers synchronize branches, clone repositoryes, and many other features. All the great features that make sharing easy include pull requests, merge button and fork queue. These features are only useful if you have pushed your code on GitHub.

GitHub Desktop Features

• Synchronize branch - This button pushes your changes on GitHub and pulls down the changes of others in one operation. It will notify you when there are changes that you haven’t pushed or new changes on GitHub that you haven’t pulled down.
• Clone repositories with one click - We automatically match repositories to GitHub Desktop Mac with the organizations you belong to when you add them to GitHub Desktop Mac. You can pull down a repository on GitHub.com. The button is located on the website.
• Simple branching – Branching is one Git's most powerful features. It's easy to create new branches in your area, test out remote branches and share them with others.
