In plain words

Fork is a Git client for Mac and Windows designed to simplify version control tasks. It helps users manage GitHub notifications, resolve merge conflicts with built-in tools, and perform interactive rebasing to edit and reorder commits. The application includes a diff viewer for spotting code changes, a history view for tracking file modifications, and a blame view for identifying specific commits. Fork was developed by a team of software developers working in their spare time.

From the sources

Fork gently informs you about GitHub notifications without being annoying. Resolve your merge-conflicts easily using the merge-conflict helper and built-in merge-conflict resolver. Edit, reorder and squash your commits using visual interactive rebase. Fork's Diff Viewer provides a clear view to spot the changes in your source code quickly. With history view you can find all commits where a particular file or directory was changed. With blame view you can find the last commit which changed a particular file line.
