Does GitKraken run on Linux?
Verdict: Yes
Yes. GitKraken publishes a Linux build of GitKraken Desktop, offered as .deb and .rpm installer files, a .tar.gz archive and a Snap, next to the Windows and Mac downloads.
GitKraken Desktop is a proper Linux app rather than a workaround. The download page lists Linux installer files for Ubuntu and Debian systems, for Red Hat and Fedora systems, a plain archive, and a Snap from the Snap Store. ARM builds are offered as a preview.
The documented support list covers Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and later, Debian 10 and later, RHEL 8 and later and Fedora 39 and later, which takes in every mainstream desktop distribution a switcher is likely to choose.
Your work comes with you. Repositories are just folders, so you clone them again or copy them across, then sign in to GitKraken with the same account and your profiles and settings return. Paid features stay paid the same way they did on Windows.
