What is this repository for?

This repository contains specific patches on top of the upstream desktop/desktop repository to support Linux usage.

It also hosts preview packages for various Linux distributions:

  • AppImage (.AppImage)
  • Debian (.deb)
  • RPM (.rpm)

Check out the latest releases to help out with testing on your distribution.

Other Distributions

Arch Linux users can install GitHub Desktop from the AUR.

gnome-keyring is required and the daemon must be launched either at login or when the X server is started. Normally this is handled by a display manager, but in other cases following the instructions found on the Arch Wiki will fix the issue of not being able to save login credentials.
