Difftastic, a structural diff tool that understands syntax
The diff itself is impressive, but in terms of styling I still prefer diff-so-fancy[1]. It's easier to read at a glance.

How to improve the readability of diffs? Preferably in Terminal, but a desktop application would be acceptable too
I don't have much hope for this being improved anytime soon in diff-so-fancy given this issue, so I'm wondering if there's something else I can use in Terminal that would allow me to have an experience like GitLab. If that's not possible and I have to rely on a desktop application, that would be acceptable too.

Git Learnt
This is actually one that's really easy to write and remember but I hate typing and I run it all the time, so I've aliased it down to gd for git-diff. Also I use diff-so-fancy to make the output of my diffs look frickin sweet and I suggest you do the same.

diff: can I increase highlighting of a file name?
I recommend a tool like diff-so-fancy with some custom colors. You will never want to go back to vanilla diffs.

TIL: diff-so-fancy; and some funky git config
I just discovered diff-so-fancy, and very nice it is too. I immediately added it to my standard git config, which is semi-automatically installed on every machine I use. However, I've not (yet) installed diff-so-fancy on all the machines I use, and for those platforms for which it's not packaged I probably won't bother installing it from source.

Suggestion on how to set up neovim as a diff/merge tool for git with dir-diff in mind
I recently switched to diff-so-fancy for use in the terminal with the following configuration:

Let's add Git userdiff defaults for Perl and Perl 6
As the primary author of diff-so-fancy, which is entirely Perl, I fully support this endeavor.

A Better Git Diff with Delta
Instead of delta https://github.com/dandavison/delta (shown in the previous video), I've also used diff-so-fancy https://github.com/so-fancy/diff-so-fancy and I've heard difftastic is good as well https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic Do you use one of those or something else?

Ask HN: Any tool for managing large and variable command lines?
In addition, I think bash's `operate-and-get-next` can be very helpful. When you go back through your shell history, you can hit Ctrl+o instead of enter and it will execute the command then put the next one in your history on the command line, and keep track of where you are in your history. This way, you can rerun a bunch of commands by going to the first one and Ctrl+o till you are done. And you can edit those commands and hit Ctrl+o and still go to the next previously run command.
Note: fzf's history search feature breaks this. https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/issues/2399

So You Think You Know Git – Git Tips and Tricks by Scott Chacon
Those are the most used aliases in my gitconfig.
"git fza" shows a list of modified/new files in an fzf window, and you can select each file with tab plus arrow keys. When you hit enter, those files are fed into "git add". Needs fzf: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf
"git gone" removes local branches that don't exist on the remote.
"git root" prints out the root of the repo. You can alias it to "cd $(git root)", and zip back to the repo root from a deep directory structure. This one is less useful now for me since I started using zoxide to jump around. https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide

Which command did you run 1731 days ago?
> my history is so noisy I had to find another way
The fzf search syntax can help, if you become familiar with it. It is also supported in atuin [2].

Z – Jump Around
You call it with `n` and get an interactive fuzzy search for your directories. If you do `n ` instead, it’ll start the find with `` already filled in (and if there’s only one match, jump to it directly). The `ls` is optional but I find that I like having the contents visible as soon as I change a directory.
I’m also including iCloud Drive but excluding the Library directory as that is too noisy. I have a separate `nl` function which searches just inside `~/Library` for when I need it, as well as other specialised `n` functions that search inside specific places that I need a lot.

Fish shell 3.7.0: last release branch before the full Rust rewrite
I do find the history pager stuff interesting, but ultimately not of tremendous use for me. I rebound all my history search stuff to use fzf[1] (via a fish plugin for such[2]), and so haven't been aware of the issues
