You might want to make a few adjustments to the script. I have included what I have done below.

Mainly a few clean up paths to ensure that you do not have a bunch of .tar.gz.### files and to ensure that you always have the most up to date version. Wonderful script though

#Clean up rm -f gitkraken-amd64.tar.gz rm -rf ./gitkraken/

Also that seems to not delete anything after 🙄
sudo rsync -va --delete-after gitkraken/ /opt/GitKraken/

It's not working:

[improoviz@improovizNote Downloads]$ sudo rsync -va --delete-after GitKraken/ /opt/GitKraken/
[sudo] password for improoviz:

Use next:
sudo rsync -va --delete-after $PWD/gitkraken/ /opt/GitKraken/

It's not working because the folder created by the tar extract is all lower case.

Change this:

# Move the Kraken
sudo rsync -va --delete-after GitKraken/ /opt/GitKraken/

To this:

# Move the Kraken
sudo rsync -va --delete-after gitkraken/ /opt/GitKraken/
