Request: Sourcetree macOS app icon rounded corners mismatch causing visual discomfort – please updat

[曹体富]

Hello Sourcetree team and community,

Thank you for the excellent Git tool — I've relied on Sourcetree for years.

After updating, the macOS app icon's rounded corners appear mismatched or awkward in the Dock (possibly due to macOS enforcing a specific corner radius/squircle shape). As someone sensitive to UI details (mild OCD around visual consistency), this irregularity stands out strongly and disrupts my focus every time I glance at the Dock or Launchpad. It doesn't blend harmoniously with other apps' icons, which follow Apple's guidelines more closely.

This seems related to past issues like SRCTREE-8221 (icon update needed for macOS 26, mentions white square/no rounded corners backing) and SRCTREE-7479 (Big Sur shape mismatch).

**Polite request/suggestions:**
- Update the icon asset to properly support macOS's current rounded corner radius (squircle style) with transparent background.
- Ensure no forced square/gray backing appears — add transparency so macOS can apply the correct masking and radius uniformly.
- Ideally, align with Apple's HIG for app icons: square base with appropriate rounded corners, gradients if possible for depth.

I've attached screenshots of my Dock (highlighting the corner issue) and a comparison with a well-adapted app icon.

A small fix here would make a huge difference for users sensitive to these visual inconsistencies. Thank you for considering this!

Best,
CAO (Los Angeles)

Quick info, here are a couple of related reported 'bugs' for this:

• SRCTREE-8243: Icon broke with 4.2.17 
• SRCTREE-8244: The new icon has a white background 
• SRCTREE-8249: The mac app icon has white background 

Based on the number of reports, I hope this will be fixed soon. 🤞

Hey @曹体富 ,

I'm not sure if it's still possible, but you could try raising a new feature request yourself by navigating to jira.atlassian.com > click "Create" > project: SRCTREE > and by filling out the required info.

I'm on Windows, so I can't say much apart from I also have a slight OCD on the design, so these minor tweaks also tend to bother me 😅

Cheers,
Tobi
