It looks like the PlasticSCM people are building a git-client, but it needs on-line installation and registration

Posted by jpluimers on 2018/12/15

gmaster is an interesting Windows based git client, but you cannot install it off-line, and by default it does not use the external git.exe.

See the below tweets.

wget https://gmaster.io/Installer fails.

Downloading only works in a JavaScript enabled web-browser via https://gmaster.io/Installer which redirects to https://gmaster.io/tour then starts download https://gmaster.io/Installer with the right cookie.

That downloads GMaster-Installer.exe which is hard-coded to download http://s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/gitmaster-releases/releases/GMaster-0.9.580.zip

For off-line installation, you can download this zip file, then uncompress it and go from there.

Note that after that, it still needs access to https://gmaster.io/api/session/login, so real off-line use is impossible.
