The GitKraken Git GUI now integrates with GitHub & GitHub Enterprise Issues

Mighty Keif the Kraken has reached across the interweb to join tentacles with his good friend Mona the Octocat once again. šŸ¦‘šŸ¤šŸ™ But this time, itā€™s all about the issues.

GitKraken allows you to connect to GitLab Self-Managed (CE or EE), which will help you find repos when cloning or adding your remotes. Once your GitLab account has been connected to GitKraken, you may easily generate an SSH key and add it to your GitLab account from Preferences Integrations. Click the magic Generate SSH key and add to GitLab button and watch what used to be 8 steps be complete in one. Alternatively add a key from SSH Defaults with Add key to GitLab or an existing key pair through Add existing SSH key. GitKraken offers three pricing tiers, all with varying costs. GitKraken: Free; GitKraken Pro: $4.08 per user/month; GitKraken Enterprise: $8.25 per user/month; The GitKraken Suite is the best value for the GitKraken Git GUI, GitKraken Boards and GitKraken Timelines. Is GitKraken free for commercial use? No, GitKraken is not free for commercial use.

The GitKraken Git GUI now supports issue tracking integrations for GitHub and GitHub Enterprise! If you already use GitKraken to manage your GitHub repositories, optimize your workflow even further with new benefits offered in GitKraken Git GUI v7.3.

GitKraken Git GUI v7.3: GitHub Issue Tracking Integration

Integrating Your Issue Tracker

Gitlab

Courtesy of this release, we have improved the setup process for all integrated issue trackers.

Navigate to Preferences ā†’ Issue Tracker and select your issue tracker of choice from a dropdown menu. Here, you may also choose to select a default issue tracker for all repos.

Gitlab

View and Filter GitHub Issues

Once connected, your issue tracker will appear in the issue section on the left panel.

Make it easy to find the issues you access the most by creating filters for your GitHub issues.

View and Edit GitHub Issue Details

Hover over an issue from the left panel to see a preview. From here, you may also select an issue to see complete issue details in a dedicated view.

From the details view, paid GitKraken Git GUI users can complete the following edits to GitHub and GitHub Enterprise issues:

  • Edit assignee of issue
  • Edit state of issue
  • Add/remove labels
  • Leave a comment

To edit GitHub issues, upgrade to a paid GitKraken Git GUI plan for as low as $29/year!

Create Branches Tied to GitHub Issues

From the details view, you can also create branches tied to GitHub issues. You will have the ability to select the base of the branch, and the issue title will become the name of the branch.

Create New GitHub Issues

The GitHub Issues integration allows you to create new issues directly from the GitKraken Git GUI. Simply click the green + button next to your GitHub issue tracker from the left panel to open the GitHub issue template.

Complete the fieldsā€”required fields will have an asteriskā€”and click Create Issue. Once created, you may view the issue directly on GitHub or GitHub Enterprise.

To create new GitHub issues, upgrade to a paid GitKraken Git GUI plan for as low as $29/year!

And, to make things even easier, you can click on an issue from the left panel to access options to View issue in GitHub or Copy issue link.
