I’ve been using Git for over 10 years… and somehow nobody told me about half of these features.
Last week I finally sat down and explored GitLens + GitKraken PROPERLY — and it completely transformed how I handle branches, PRs, bugs, refactors, and code reviews.
If you’ve ever felt like you spend more time fighting Git than actually writing code, this video will save you hours every week.
In this video, I break down:
🔹 How GitLens Worktrees let you work on multiple branches at the same time
🔹 Why the Commit Graph isn’t just visualization — it’s a drag-and-drop superpower
🔹 How GitKraken AI writes perfect commit messages & PR descriptions
🔹 One-click branch creation from issues (no more switching to Jira/GitHub)
🔹 How Launchpad fixes PR reviews and blocks
🔹 Visual file history + cloud patches
🔹 The Git workflow that finally feels smooth
This is a sponsored video, but everything I show is exactly how I now use Git every day — and honestly I’m annoyed I didn’t learn these features years ago.
