Keep version control close to the work.
OpenVCS is an open source desktop client for Git today, built on plugin backends so broader VCS support can grow from the same foundation.
Git ships first. Linux-first. Windows supported. More backends come after the core gets solid.
Why this exists
Git first. Not Git only.
OpenVCS makes local version control easier now, without tying the client to one system forever.
See the whole repo
Know what happened before you act.
History, current changes, and branch state stay together so decisions come faster.
Keep loose work alive
Context switching should not cost work.
Stash is not a corner case. It is how real branch work survives interruptions.
Extend without forking
Open by design, not by accident.
Themes and config-driven plugins keep OpenVCS adaptable without turning every preference into a fork.
Try the current release
Useful now. Still early enough to shape.
The core Git workflow is already real. The broader direction stays disciplined: stabilize, extend, then add more backends.
