What Tower is
Tower is a graphical Git client for macOS and Windows that presents advanced Git operations through a visual interface. It can undo local changes, restore revisions, revert commits, recover deleted commits, and reverse branch deletions. Integrations include GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, Azure DevOps, and Perforce, with pull-request creation, merging, commenting, closing, and inspection. A built-in diff viewer works alongside external tools such as Kaleidoscope, Beyond Compare, and Araxis Merge. Tower also supports Git LFS, git-flow, worktrees, SSH and GPG keys, submodules, interactive rebase, a conflict editor, and a visual conflict wizard. AI can generate commit messages and descriptions from customized prompts. Requirements are macOS 14.0 or later or Windows 10 or newer, and no separate Git installation is required. There is no general free plan, but a 30-day Pro trial needs no credit card. Annual plans are Basic at $69 a year, Pro at $129 a year, and Enterprise at $149 a year with a 10-user minimum.
