Kami follows changes made outside it, saves as you go, commits from the Git view, connects to MySQL and MariaDB, and pins tabs.

Highlights

Live filesystem watching
The file tree, open tabs and git state follow changes made outside Kami, so a checkout in a terminal shows up without a restart. A burst of changes, like a branch switch touching hundreds of files, costs one refresh.
Autosave by default
Edited files save themselves after about 15 seconds idle, when the window loses focus, or when you leave a tab, as in JetBrains IDEs. Turn it off on the Editor settings tab.
Commit from the Git view
The WIP pane has a commit composer with a summary, a description and an Amend toggle.
MySQL and MariaDB
The database tools connect to both, alongside PostgreSQL and SQLite.
Tab pinning and reordering
Right-click a tab for close, pin and split actions, and drag tabs to reorder them.

Editor

7 changes
  • Autosave never formats the file; ⌘S still formats on save.
  • Autosave skips read-only views, diff and scratch panes, and files changed on disk underneath unsaved edits.
  • A clean tab whose file was deleted on disk closes; a tab with unsaved edits stays open and tells you the file was deleted.
  • A file changed on disk while you have unsaved edits gets a warning that ⌘S will overwrite it.
  • The tab context menu has Close, Close Others, Close All to the Right, Pin, Unpin, Split with This Tab, Copy Path, Copy Relative Path and Reveal in Tree.
  • Pinned tabs stay at the front of the strip and survive Close Others and Close All to the Right.
  • Drag a tab to reorder it within the pinned or unpinned group.

Git view

6 changes
  • Commit staged changes from the WIP pane, or press ⌘↩.
  • The commit button says what it will do, such as “Commit changes to 3 files” or “Amend previous commit”.
  • Turning on Amend fills in the last commit’s message and gives back what you had typed when you turn it off.
  • An “already pushed” chip warns before you amend a commit the upstream already has.
  • A branch switched in a terminal or from the sidebar refreshes the workspace and shows which branch you are on.
  • Branch switches are noticed in linked worktrees and when the workspace is a subdirectory of a repository.

Database view

2 changes
  • Connect to MySQL and MariaDB: browse schemas, run queries, view results in the grid, and cancel a running query without dropping the session.
  • Read-only connections refuse writes on MySQL and MariaDB, including DDL.

App

3 changes
  • The file tree rescans when files change on disk, keeping open folders and the selection.
  • One click folds or unfolds a folder in the file tree.
  • Watching works for workspaces opened through a symlink.
