Old thread is here: https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,16934.0.html
Please don't reply to that one.

In General, please don't reply to a 10 year old thread/topic.
If anything, create a new topic and put in a link to old one (like this new topic/thread).
Free Pascal and Lazarus are in git repos now, they have been for several years.

Is not a real necessity, there are free GUI tools everywhere for Git, for each OS.

I can't comment specially on Lazarus SCM support, as I rarely use the IDE, and would not use it SCM directly if I did.
As @lainz has pointed out Lazarus IDE support for SCM is not a real necessity, and I agree.
TRon:
FPC lazarus repositories supported git even before it was officially hosted at a git repository (choose the right toolbox) so fr sure that wasn't what TS intended to know with the question.
The answer (as provided in the other thread) is: no, lazarus does not have git integration (there might be a 3th party package out there that i do not know about though).
Th usual suspects would argue that there is no use for integration as there are many tools out there that do it for you. Can't say I share that thought.

I won't argue on that one as far as how others do development.
I'm just saying from my standpoint.
I know many developers that use and depend on support in their IDEs for SCM, as they manage their projects with their IDE, which includes source code management (and version control for those projects).
Just because I don't work that way (depending on the IDE) I can see that that SCM integration with one's IDE can be extremely useful.
