Summary

Git Extensions is a graphical user interface for Git that allows you to control Git without using the commandline.

Description

Features

• Windows Explorer integration for Git
• Feature rich user interface for Git

Notes

• This package will not uninstall silently when the application was never used (see the #3581 issue).

• The msi REMOVE parameter (inside the chocolateyInstall.ps1 file) that is defined in silentArgs was obtained with the following PowerShell snippet.

  (
      (
          @(
              lessmsi l -t Feature gitextensionsInstall.msi `
                  | ConvertFrom-Csv `
                  | Where-Object {$_.Level -gt 1} `
                  | ForEach-Object {$_.Feature} `
          ) + 'AddToPath'
      ) | Sort-Object -Unique
  ) -join ','
  

  We also do not let the installer add the GitExtensions directory to the PATH because it leaves too many executables and dlls available on the search PATH. instead we create a single shim to gitex.cmd.
