forgit VS tig

i don't like tuis that much (other than for editing text, i mean), but i also really don't like git's command line interface.

so i've been using forgit, which basically adds a really nice fzf interface for git. it really fits the way i work within a terminal (i'm a heavy fzf user).

Seems like (maybe) it’s a NeoVim integration of this tool

So it is like https://github.com/wfxr/forgit only that instead of a command you can use shortcut in your terminal emulator, right?

Well, what if I told you there are tools that can improve this significantly. We are going to be looking at 2 tools today, forgit and lazygit. Both of these tools let us do many of our day-to-day git tasks, interactively and come with a LOT of keyboard shortcuts.

No, they're not.

`gcp` and `ga` are part of forgit, not OPs config. That's why searching the repo didn't find anything. I assumed they were part of OPs linked repo.

`gcp` https://github.com/wfxr/forgit/search?q=gcp

`ga` https://github.com/wfxr/forgit/search?q=ga

git Work with git. Switch branches, search history with diffs viewing, interactive rebase and more.

Related but I use tig, a TUI, a lot to examine the state of my working tree and index and stage/unstage/reset changes piecemeal. It works great.

I'd like to plug [tig](https://github.com/jonas/tig) for those who don't use emacs. I see lazygit recommended here too, but I've been using tig for years now and love it's simplicity.

Try tig

I'm normally a CLI git (and tig) user.

Sometimes when I work in command line I use tig (https://jonas.github.io/tig/). There is also similar tool lazygit (https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit)

And you accidently open a git TUI

tig +My custom command to fix MR comments by quickly editing an old commit's changes at the time when that commit was created. (Like a more controlled git-absorb that explicitly selects a commit to fixup and therefor avoids rebase-conflicts when squashing)

today I looked at tig which is a nice text based GUI, and I think I will never use git log again :-)

If you are looking for more interactivity while remaining on the commandline, have you looked at Tig? Tig has a view for browsing refs, and you can sort by date.
