Quickly checkout or delete branches using only your keyboard and this simple command line application.

Git Branch Manager

The Git Branch Manager lists all your branches and allows you to quickly checkout or delete them with less than a handful of key-strokes.

Instead of typing out the commands, they are created for you. In order to ensure that no git history is destroyed accidentally, you have to confirm the command before it is executed.

Demo

The text styles of branches mean the following:

• Bold: Your current branch.
• Underlined: Recently checked out branches. This is especially helpful if you have a bigger number of local branches.
• "[inactive]": There was no commit on this branch in the last week. Should you have forgotten to delete no longer needed branches for some time, this helps you quickly identify them.
