In a few steps, you can start using SnailGit Lite easily:
1. Enable "SnailGit Lite Extension" in "System Preferences » Extensions".
2. Clone a Git repository with SnailGit Lite (File » Git Clone...) or add an existing Git repository to SnailGit Lite.
3. Navigate to your repository in Finder and right click to access SnailGit Lite functionalities.
