About

Turtle provides a command line tool, which opens a dialog for some git actions, i.e. commit, log, etc. It also provides a plugin for Nautilus (and other file managers), which adds emblems and context menu entries. If you use the flatpak version, you have to install the Nautilus plugin manually.
