Scottsdale, Ariz., December 13, 2022 – GitKraken, the world’s premier developer of Git tools for software developers, announced today a major version release of their GitKraken Desktop, headlined by enhanced Workspaces and the introduction of a brand new Insights capability.

Already the industry’s leading Git Client, the new version is purpose built to help developers work smarter and collaborate even more easily thanks to two workspaces—Local and Cloud—plus the introduction of Insights, an all new capability that measures how fast pull requests are merged into repositories. 

“GitKraken Desktop has built a reputation as a product that makes development workflows easier and faster, and this release doubles down on that. From creating issues to closing pull requests, on single repos and now especially multiple repos, we’re solving real challenges that developers and teams face every day, and we’re providing new tools to get ahead of the challenges they will encounter in 2023 and beyond,” says Eric Amodio, GitKraken CTO.

GitKraken Desktop offers best-in-class flexibility with the ability to integrate with multiple hosting and issue-tracking services, including GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, Jira, and more. The Workspaces feature was introduced in a previous release, but the new enhancements deliver on a more complete vision and refined user experience. And the new Insights feature puts valuable productivity data quite literally at the fingertips of individual developers and team managers.

“GitKraken Desktop 9.0 truly transforms the development workflow and reflects that development has evolved from an individual sport to a team sport,” says GitKraken CEO, Matt Johnston. “The breakthroughs in this release—and the future ones we’re planning in this 9.X family of GitKraken Desktop—are both practical and forward-looking, and they are a reflection of our commitment to building tools that improve the lives and work of developers.”
