icon Gitling is a Git client for Android, built with Jetpack Compose and Material 3 Expressive.

It's a fork of MGit (itself a continuation of SGit), modernized with a current Android toolchain, a from-scratch Compose UI, one-tap GitHub sign-in, and a new identity.

Features:

* Clone, create, and delete local repositories
* One-tap Connect with GitHub (OAuth Device Flow) -- no manual token/password handling for GitHub remotes
* HTTP/HTTPS/SSH, including SSH with private-key passphrase
* Username/password and personal access token authentication for any Git host
* Browse files and commit history, git diff between commits
* Checkout, create, and merge local/remote branches and tags
* git status, staging, git rebase, git cherry-pick, git checkout
* Private key generation and management
* Import an existing repository from device storage
* Light/dark mode that follows the system, with a choice between a fixed brand color or wallpaper-based Material You dynamic color

Gitling doesn't include an internal text editor -- to edit files, you'll need an editor app installed that supports opening files via Android's File Provider mechanism (most code/text editor apps do).

WhatsNew:

Fixed several crash reports: cloning/initializing with no name typed yet, generating a DSA SSH key at the default length, and a rare crash pulling right after the app restarts. The Clone/Init sheet also now shows validation errors instead of closing silently.

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device.
