Graphical interface won't work well inside WSL, that's why I dropped my subscription on GitKraken and start using lazygit. lazygit simply works in almost any environment, and it works extremely well even if you are not into terminal stuff.
Yeah, that’s the power of TUI. I would probably give it a go, too, but Git Cola works for me on Linux and Mac without too many issues.
(By “works anywhere”, I meant you can use it with any IDE or editor, or just run it from terminal, though it is cross-platform and should work on Windows, just not sure how well it would play with WSL.)
Really? While there its certainly slightly annoying because they have the "double menu bar" if they use a non-standard one like the jetbrains ides do... I feel like wsl gui support has essentially become a "solved issue" for a while now.
Yes and no, GitKraken actually have a graphical interface for WSL (or Linux generally), but it is barely usable as the WSL-g does not really work well. It's blurry for Hi-Res screen and the performance is like hell.
I would never try running any graphical stuff in WSL anymore, not worth it. VMWare with a graphical installation of any Linux system would be a preferred choice as I'm testing lately.
