      The main executable file, `Sourcetree`, is universal (x86_64 and arm64), but the git binary utilities are not.

       

      $ file Sourcetree
      Sourcetree: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [x86_64:Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64] [arm64]
      Sourcetree (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
      Sourcetree (for architecture arm64): Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64
      $ file ../Resources/git_local/bin/git
      ../Resources/git_local/bin/git: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64

       

      git runs translated by Rosetta 2. It works but with suboptimal performance.

            Hi, 7c9b2f19de04 .

            Thanks for pointing on this. You are right, embedded git binaries have no slice for arm64 architecture. We will work to provide a fix this in future releases.

            For now, in case you affected by performance, you could configure Sourcetree to use system git. Just open Sourcetree preferences -> Git -> press "Use system git" button. Select git binaries installed in your system and Sourcetree will work with your system git.

            Thank you!
