winget install --id var-gg.gitwinkAbout gitwink
gitwink is a tray-resident, read-only Git glance tool. It shows a unified timeline of recent commit activity across all of your local Git repositories, so you can wink at what changed, where, and by whom, without opening a heavyweight editor. Built for the AI-agent era, when code changes land across many repositories at once.
What's new in 0.12.0
An agent-ready interaction and delivery release. AI tools can land the user on exact Git context without a vendor-specific bridge, search composes with the visible timeline scope, the tray panel can grow into a full inspection surface, and update behavior is explicit for every distribution channel. Added - A read-only agent control surface. gitwinkctl capabilities --json, show commit, and show file-history let Codex, Claude Code, scripts, and other tools open the exact repository context a user should inspect. The protocol resolves revisions and subdirectory paths safely, reuses the running app, reports structured outcomes, and requires neither MCP nor a vendor-specific skill. - English, Korean, and Japanese UI. System-language detection and an explicit live preference now cover the panel, diff, Settings, update flows, native tray menu, and errors. Unsupported system locales fall back to English without shipping separate language-pack installers. - A resizable and maximizable panel. Drag any edge or corner, choose default or wide presets, or maximize for deep history reading. gitwink preserves a scale-independent normal size, restores it across displays, and follows the native maximize conventions of Windows and macOS. - Search that composes with timeline filters. Commit search now remains inside the active repository, author, branch, and time scope. Every scope is visible and editable in search mode, all-history demand stays indexed and cancellable, and jumping to a result round-trips through view history without widening the query. - Microsoft Store-native in-app updates....

| 0.11.0 | Unknown | A repository-lifecycle and history release. Repositories can now leave and return without losing user intent, filters describe the scope they actually query, and complete-history work stays truthful and responsive even w... |
| 0.10.1 | Unknown | A hardening release. A full multi-agent QA sweep of v0.10.0 surfaced 29 verified defects — 13 bugs, 8 performance bottlenecks, 8 rough edges — and every one is fixed here, each as its own commit and each build- and test-... |
| 0.10.0 | Unknown | Added - Find inside a diff (Ctrl+F). The side-by-side view is virtualized, so the browser's own find can't see off-screen lines — this searches the whole diff. Ctrl+F opens a bar that jumps to each match, counts them (3/... |
| 0.9.0 | Unknown | Added - Fresh commits show up on their own — auto-fetch on panel open. When you open a single repo, gitwink runs a quiet git fetch origin in the background so a teammate's just-pushed commits appear without you reaching... |
| 0.8.0 | Unknown | Added - Diff overview minimap + scroll-sync lock — the side-by-side diff gets a change-location rail (add/delete/replace marks; click or drag to jump). The two sides scroll together by default; a ⇅ Sync toggle unlocks th... |
| 0.7.0 | Unknown | Added - Commit search, with a "warp" to context — press / (or Ctrl+F), or click the new ⌕ button in the header. The timeline itself becomes the result list: words match the commit message (full body), author, and repo na... |
| 0.6.0 | Unknown | Added - Per-repo identity dots in the all-repos timeline — each repo gets a stable color from the same palette the branch lanes use, so interleaved commits group visually by repo instead of having to read every name. - "... |
| 0.5.0 | Unknown | Added - Diff window — whole-file view. A ±3 / ±25 / Full context toggle in the diff header expands the view beyond the changed hunks; "Full" shows the entire file with additions/deletions still highlighted, right in the... |
