Is there any equivalent to TortoiseSVN but for Ubuntu / Git? I'd like to integrate Git commands to Nautilus.

I have installed RabbitVCS on Ubuntu 11.10 via sudo apt-get install rabbitvcs-nautilus3 But how do I run it? – Khurram Majeed Mar 06 '12 at 18:43

RabbitVCS integrates Git into Nautilus. It is available for Ubuntu from a PPA.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rabbitvcs/ppa
sudo apt-get update
For 11.04 and earlier:
sudo apt-get install rabbitvcs-nautilus
For 11.10 and later:
sudo apt-get install rabbitvcs-nautilus3
You should reload Nautilus after!

3RabbitVCS does not work with Nautilus 3.8, the version shipped with Ubuntu 13.10. – Luís de Sousa Jan 04 '14 at 15:06

This software just plain sucks. There's no more polite way I can put it. I considered fixing it, but it can't be done. – Marc.2377 Jun 15 '19 at 04:18
This has been proposed already on Ubuntu braninstorm and on GNOME-Look.org but no code seems to be available at the moment.
There is however a GNOME GUI front-end for Git called Giggle which is available in the Ubuntu 10.04 repositories (pre-packaged for other distributions as well, see the web page): apt-get install giggle
.

It doesn't. And Giggle is broken. Gitg is better, but it also doesn't integrate with Nautilus. – Marc.2377 Jun 15 '19 at 04:19
I don't know of any Nautilus extensions for git. There is a set of nautilus scripts but that isn't quite the same as the integration you get with RabbitVCS for svn or bzr-gtk for bzr.

https://github.com/tapio/nautilus-git-scripts.git is a quite nice. Thanks for the pointer. It fails to handle multiple files for rename/delete, but that's a very good start. – Benoît Oct 31 '11 at 19:11
Here you go: https://github.com/bil-elmoussaoui/nautilus-git/
Works with both Nautilus & Nemo on Gtk3.14+
Not perfect, does not implement a lot of things but help/ideas are welcome!
