Outline

GitView is a GUI for git that is inspired by the one included in Intellij IDEA. GitView is intended to go into your project directory.

Build Instructions

Make sure to have Golang and make installed.
To build the program into an executable file, run the make command.
If you want to run the program without making the build files, run the make run command.
