Could you build this?
Partial A basic Git GUI can wrap the git CLI or libgit2, but a polished version with selective staging, conflict resolution and an integrated PTY terminal across three operating systems is a substantial engineering effort.
What it would actually take: A realistic build would use a desktop shell such as Tauri or Electron with a Rust or Node backend that drives git via libgit2 or the CLI. The hard parts are a robust three-way merge and conflict-resolution UI and a cross-platform pseudo-terminal integration. This needs a developer experienced with git internals and desktop app packaging across Linux, Windows and macOS.
