Some background, since this is posted on HN. I&#x27;m one of the GitHub cofounders and I helped start GitButler to see if we can rethink the whole idea of what the user interface is like for our local version control tools. It&#x27;s important that it works great with GitHub (and all the other git-centric things, like GitOps) and that it can be used by just one developer on a team.<p>Our big focus right now is better branch management. We came up with a new way to do branches called &quot;virtual branches&quot;, where you can manipulate more than one branch simultaneously in your working directory.<p>I would love to hear what people think would be cool in a new version control system. What doesn&#x27;t work great right now? Where are your frictions? What would an awesome version control experience be?
