✨ Git Rebase Features

🛠️

Visual Interactive Rebase

Drag and drop commits to reorder history. Squash, rephrase, drop, and manage interactive rebase actions with a clean visual workflow. In multi-select mode, tick several commits to squash, mark, drop, or drag a contiguous block to reorder them all at once.

🔍

Search, Filter, and Inspect

Search commits by SHA or message, inspect commit details, and navigate history quickly using keyboard shortcuts.

📚

Browse Reflog, Stashes & Any Commit

Open read-only windows for the HEAD reflog, the stash list, any other branch, or a single commit by SHA. Copy SHAs, show commit logs, and apply, drop, or keep stashes with confirmation — all from the Repo menu.

🎨

Dark and Light Themes

Adaptive dark and light themes with persistent settings for a smoother Git workflow.

⚡

Split, Squash, and Cleanup

Split commits, squash related changes, rephrase messages, and organize history before creating pull requests.

✂️

Refine Changes in File

Selectively keep, drop, edit, or move specific changes/hunks to separate commits — ideal for cleaning up mixed commits before a PR.

🔧

Built on Native Git

Uses the standard Git CLI underneath for all operations. Lightweight, transparent, and automatically benefits from future Git improvements.

🤔 Why This Tool?

Focused Rebase Workflow

Unlike full Git clients, this tool focuses specifically on interactive rebase workflows: reorder, squash, split, rephrase, refine changes, and clean up history before PR creation.

Uses Native Git

All operations are executed using the standard Git CLI itself. No custom Git implementation or hidden logic.
