## Description

Ungit is a web-based graphical interface and version control client for managing Git repositories. It provides a visual dashboard for performing version control operations, staging changes, and committing files without using a terminal.

The project integrates third-party merge utilities to resolve file conflicts and includes a system for signing and verifying the authenticity of code contributions using PGP encryption keys.

The interface maintains synchronization with the local filesystem by monitoring directory changes in real time to update the repository state. It interfaces with the underlying Git binary by executing shell commands and parsing the output for display.
