OpenVCS is in early development and focused on delivering strong Git workflows first.

Current Focus

  • Git-first release scope: OpenVCS currently focuses on Git to keep scope tight and quality high.
  • Core repository operations: Clone/open repos, status and diffs, staging/commit, branch workflows, merge/conflict flows, stash, sync/remotes.
  • Desktop UX: Fast, keyboard-friendly workflows with an interface designed for daily use.
  • Experimental status: Features and APIs are still evolving and may change.

Platform Status

  • Linux: Primary target today.
  • Windows: Supported and actively iterated.
  • macOS: Not currently planned.

Roadmap Direction

  • Extensibility: Plugin and theme capabilities continue to mature.
  • Multi-VCS vision: Additional backends are planned after core Git workflows stabilize.
  • Community-driven priorities: Feedback directly informs what gets built next.
