GitLab Dekstop for Mac and Windows

Everyone can contribute. Help move this issue forward while earning points, leveling up and collecting rewards.

Description

Problem: Some users prefer to use a desktop solution vs. a command line interface for git.

Use Cases:

  • .NET Developers that are used to everything in TFS with a Git repo would love GitLab Desktop
  • Non-Developers / Business users
  • Less technical user that likes to point and click. Drag and drop. Not CLI user.

Benefits:

  • Rapid GitLab adoption for enterprises heavily invested in MSFT TFS or similar dev tool stack
  • Close the competitive Gaps between GitLab and GitHub

Existing Customer: https://gitlab.my.salesforce.com/0016100000W3J3M

  • Has 1/3 or 33% of Development using TFS
  • Potential 1-2K new users

Update 11/8/2017

  • Teams asking for this have moved forward with integrating into visual studio or jumped on Tower.
    I don’t think we have any folks crying for it right now
  • Potential 100 new users

Goals: Make it easier for everyone to contribute
