It integrates Git tools to Visual Studio as a source control provider since Visual Studio 2008 ([Github Project](https://github.com/yysun/Git-Source-Control-Provider)) ([InfoQ News](https://www.infoq.com/news/2010/06/Git-Visual-Studio)). Starting in Visual Studio 2013, Microsoft has built the Microsoft Git provider into Visual Studio, but Visual Studio remains allowing only one active source control provider at a time. [Git Tools](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=yysun.GitTools) is modified from the Git Source Control Provider to become a standalone extension. It is compatible with Microsoft Git and can run side by side with Microsoft Git.\r\n\r\nVisual Studio 2019 has a new asynchronous extension architecture. [Git Tools 2019](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=yysun.git-tools-2019) is modified from Git Tools to adopt the new architecture. It is compiled from the VS2019 branch.\r\n\r\n## Screenshot of Visual Studio 2017\r\n![main-menu-2017](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/170547/23336421/281f2002-fb9e-11e6-9cec-77362e6a553c.png)\r\n\r\n## Screenshot of Visual Studio 2019\r\n![main-menu-2019](VSIXProject2019/art/main.png)\r\n\r\nFor more information, please visit http://yysun.github.io/git-tools\r\n\r\n\r\n## How to Use\r\n\r\n* Install [Git for Windows](http://code.google.com/p/msysgit), [Git Extensions](https://gitextensions.github.io) (optional) or [TortoiseGit](http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit) (optional).\r\n* Run Visual Studio.\r\n* Go to Tools | Extensions, and Updates..., search the online gallery for Git Tools and install.\r\n* Select Top Menu 'Git Tools' or add 'Git Tools' toolbar to the main window.\r\n\r\n## Compile Source Code\r\n\r\n* Get source code: _git clone https://github.com/yysun/git-tools.git_\r\n* Open the solution and compile it in Visual Studio 2017\r\n* Or checkout branch VS2019 and open the solution in Visual Studio 2019\r\n\r\nPull requests are welcomed\r\n\r\n## Change Logs\r\n\r\n### 5.0.0\r\n\r\n* Support Visual Studio 2022\r\n\r\n\r\n### 3.0.0\r\n\r\n* Support Visual Studio 2019\r\n\r\n### 2.0.0\r\n\r\n* Added advanced mode: displays un-staged changes and staged changes as two lists\r\n* Added advanced mode: allows stage/un-stage/reset by selecting line(s)\r\n* Improved Git Console autocomplete\r\n* Support git commit.template settings\r\n\r\n### 1.6.0\r\n\r\n* Upgrade solution for VS 2017 RC, support VS 2017 RC\r\n\r\n### 1.5.0\r\n\r\n* Performance enhancement: Use the background thread to refresh git changes\r\n* Performance enhancement: Use background thread to stage multiple files\r\n* Performance enhancement: Not to refresh if the changed files are ignored by git\r\n* Copy Dragon.exe to the Documents folder instead of the temp folder\r\n* Support VS community and Enterprise Editions\r\n* Bug fixes\r\n\r\n### 1.4\r\n\r\n* Add git console\r\n\r\n### 1.3\r\n\r\n* Add compare menu in changed file list to launch visual studio diff viewer\r\n* Add more context menu to git history viewer, e.g. init, stash, cherry pick, rebase, merge and etc.\r\n* Re-work on the refresh logic\r\n\r\n### 1.0\r\n\r\n* Migrated from [Git Source Control Provider](https://github.com/yysun/Git-Source-Control-Provider)\r\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fyysun%2Fgit-tools","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fyysun%2Fgit-tools","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fyysun%2Fgit-tools/lists"}
