About this app

Source Files is a faster way to access GitHub, GitLab and BitBucket from the Finder and Files app without having to clone repositories or commit changes. Uploading files from the share sheet or Mac services menu is supported and very fast as target directories are remembered for different file types. Source Files is file oriented and making edits to 3 different files will result in 3 commits. There is rich support for automation with Shortcuts actions to List, Download, Upload and Move files. You get a 7 day free trial of all Pro features to explore the benefits before committing after which you can subscribe Monthly or purchase a Lifetime unlock which is shared between iPhone, iPad and Mac. Downloading and Uploading files are Pro features. Consider using traditional Git clients like Working Copy for projects that need a tidy commit history. Source Files is restricted by GitHub, GitLab and BitBucket API quotas that depend on your account privileges.
