I made a benchmark comparing Claude Code and Codex stacking using `gh stack` vs `but` `but` ⋈ ofc also uses the native @github.com stacks and "just works"™ ❤️ bench repo: github.com/gitbutlerapp...

⋈ GitButler v0.22.0 is out with full support for native @github.com stacked PRs. It's the easiest way to get your Claude Code or Codex to fluently stack. Have multiple agent sessions operate on different parts of the stack in parallel, it 'just works' docs.gitbutler.com/ai-agents/ov...
GitHub@github.com · 6d agoStacked PRs, now on GitHub. Go forth and stack 🥞
the `but` TUI has a pro-state that lets you run any `but` command. to enter it, use the colon `:`. then type your command of choice. most of the operations are already natively in the TUI but this is helpful for some commands still
got a bit bored tonight. so, adding image diff preview to the GitButler TUI now
we did some pretty cool evals trying to determine how gb stacks up against Git and Jujutsu when being used by agents. while we assumed `but` would be better than Git since the CLI is optimized for that, I was surprised by JJ's benchmarks. blog.gitbutler.com/vcbench

⋈ gb 0.21.0 is out! The main new thing is that the app now supports the "push to main" workflow (skipping the PR). 🔨 Also, the TUI got a major performance bump when navigating huge diffs. 🏎️ And last but not least, there's an option to AI-resolve merge conflicts. 🤖 github.com/gitbutlerapp...

Support for "push to main" / "skip the pull request" workflows You can now land a branch straight onto its target eg. origin/main, without ever opening a pull/merge request. In the desktop app this...

we are testing a "skip the PR" (a.k.a. merge to main) workflow support. if you wanna try it early, check out the latest nightly and try the `but land <branch>` command. and do share any feedback you have! gitbutler.com/nightly

`undo` is one of the coolest commands in gitbutler. pretty much **any operation** can be undone. and yes, there is a `redo` and yes, you can run them multiple times
Ran hundreds of version control benchmarks comparing Claude vs Codex in usage of the `but` CLI. Claude performs worse, and I think we finally found the root cause 🥁... The `but status` output contains characters ◐ & ● - for some reason Claude overthinks what they mean...
if u live in the terminal, `but tui` is probably the fastest way to organize your git commits and stack your branches. check out our very own @scottchacon.com showing off how inTUItive it is ❤️📺

recently realised that we had ZERO docs on the GB tui - and it is a pretty neat tui if I may brag. it has a bunch of tricks that the desktop app doesn’t so here’s the first batch of GitButler TUI docs - docs.gitbutler.com/gitbutler-tui

i thought i'd share stuff we learned when building CLI tools **for ai agents**: - our CLI has a --json output. but according to our benchmarks, the human output performs better in both claude and codex
⋈ GitButler 0.20.0 dropped a few days ago. We hear 🤖 ai agents really like using our CLIs so we made it even better for them clankers! Multitasking without worktrees anyone? Also updated the docs 👇🧵

CSS now does what Floating UI, GSAP ScrollTrigger, Framer Motion, and react-select used to require JavaScript for. Here is exactly how much that saves, why these libraries were painful beyond their size, and what the platform still hasn't figured out.
