Obviously I was using an older version that’s why the feature was still working for me.Īs I said at the beginning of the post, I can’t say that this is “unexpected” because there is a company behind and companies need to profit.

Also, there are some other points which were changed as well.

Gitkraken private repository free#

Visiting the Axosoft blog, which is the company behind GitKraken, there is a post clarifying the situation, that is, private repositories will no longer be part of the free application as of version 6.0. The question that remains is, why was there no warning on the interface alerting users about that change?Īnyway, I went to the “GitKraken” website to understand what happened, hoping to find a release note, but right away I found nothing and ended up going to some communities where I finally found something. It doesn’t take a lot of neurons to understand that they took away one of the features that were “free” in one of those updates. The fact is that this weekend, a long time after I was using GitKraken, I came across an alert saying that I could not open my repository because it was private. The reason was pretty simple, in my point of view, GitKraken was more didactic and have a very easy and nice user interface. A simple search on google, returned me several client options and one of them was GitKraken, the option that I chose. Run your GitKraken in a container, mapping your local home directory into the container.The subject that I will approach in this post today took me by surprise, although I can’t say that it was an unexpected event, in order to better understand it, I need to tell a brief story.Ī bit over 1 year ago I’ve migrated my development environment from Windows (10) to Linux Mint.Īs expected, some tools are not compatible with both operating systems, so I had to look for alternatives to meet my needs.Īmong those needs was a GIT client as I honestly am not a big fan of handling everything by command line. Īllow Docker to connect to your local XServer: xhost +local:docker

However, you can run it in Docker by building an image for it based on Ubuntu 18.04!Ĭreate a Dockerfile. If you have tried running GitKraken 6.5.1 on a recent version of Ubuntu, you have probably noticed that it has dependencies that can't be satisfied (gvfs-bin).

Gitkraken private repository license#

You may want to purchase a license to be updated and fine, as well as supporting the company) ( Note: Newer version obviously contains more features. So make sure you remove the local project and get it from remote again. Note: I had issues with some repos even with this solution and that could be because gitkraken saves config file in the repo (which is not shared with remote). Go to C:/Users/USERNAME/appdata/local/gitkraken and rename Update.exe to Update_.exe (Don't remove it.

Go to C:/Users/USERNAME/appdata/roaming/ and remove.

Go to C:/Users/USERNAME/appdata/local/ and remove GitKraken.

If you had a newer version installed, get rid of it like this:
