Introduce a reusable providerLogo snippet to consolidate logo markup (normal
and large variants) and to render the instance badge for self-hosted GitLab.
Replace duplicated inline SVG spans with {@render providerLogo(...)} calls.
Also:
- update the Azure DevOps SVG path (comment notes simple-icons v11.15.0 as source)
- add providerColor cases for gitea and azure-devops and expose light-theme
CSS vars for their colors
- overhaul provider logo CSS (sizes, brand-icon class, instance badge, borders
and theme-aware vars) to unify appearance and spacing.

Arch Linux
Install Gitty from the AUR with an AUR helper:
yay -S gitty-desktop
To install the prebuilt native Arch package instead of compiling from source:
yay -S gitty-desktop-bin
Or build the AUR package manually:
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/gitty-desktop.git
cd gitty-desktop
makepkg -si
The source recipe downloads the public Gitea release archive and builds Gitty.
The -bin recipe repackages the native .pkg.tar.zst release artifact. The
release pipeline updates both packages' versions, checksums, and .SRCINFO
files.
Command line
Open an existing repository when Gitty starts:
gitty.exe --repo "D:\Projects\ExistingRepo"
Clone a remote into an exact local target folder and open it immediately:
gitty.exe --clone "https://example.com/team/project.git" "D:\Projects\Project"
gitty clone "git@example.com:team/project.git" "D:\Projects\Project"
--clone=<REMOTE> is also accepted. Relative target paths are resolved from
the current working directory. Clone and repository requests are forwarded to
the running window when Gitty is already open.
Git hosting integrations
Gitty connects to GitHub, GitLab.com, GitLab Self-Managed, Azure DevOps, and Gitea from Settings → Integrations. Each connection uses a personal access token that is stored in the operating system keychain instead of application settings. Azure DevOps can manage multiple organizations with separate URLs, usernames, and tokens.
After enabling a connection, open Clone → Integrations to load the repositories available to that account. Repositories are sorted alphabetically and can be filtered, refreshed, selected, and cloned directly with the stored credentials.
Git LFS
Gitty bundles the git-lfs executable in its desktop installers and checks it
at runtime before offering LFS actions. Arch packages also declare git-lfs as
a dependency so Git hooks and command-line workflows outside Gitty use the same
extension. The repository toolbar exposes LFS setup, tracked patterns, object
downloads, and safe cache pruning. After every successful clone or pull, Gitty
detects LFS usage and automatically downloads the required LFS objects with the
same remote and credentials, so no second pull is needed. Fresh clones also get
repository-local LFS filters and the pre-push hook before they are opened.
