Difftastic: A syntactic diff tool
This with the UI from https://github.com/banga/git-split-diffs would make the perfect CLI diff tool!

Ask HN: Tools you have made for yourself?
I wrote https://github.com/banga/git-split-diffs mainly to scratch an itch about not having side by side git diffs in the terminal, then ended up adding more fancy features like syntax highlighting and it got somewhat popular.

I actually tried to automate the screenshots for this project's readme using GitHub actions, but struggled to get it to produce the same quality screenshots as my local machine. This is the script I use for now, which has to be invoked manually: https://github.com/banga/git-split-diffs/blob/main/scripts/g...

So You Think You Know Git – Git Tips and Tricks by Scott Chacon
Thanks for the difftastic & zoxide tips.
However, I've been using this git pager/difftool: https://github.com/dandavison/delta
While it's not structural like difft, it does produce more readable output for me (at least when scrolling fast through git log -p /scanning quickly

Unified versus Split Diff
I'm currently waiting on the integration between Delta and Difftastic:
https://github.com/dandavison/delta/issues/535
Difftastic now has JSON output, whic should make it much easier to build this.

Magit
I'm surely in the minority here. I've been using Emacs for almost a decade now, but I just can't get into the Magit workflow. I've tried several times, but always end up going back to Git on the command line. I have dozens of aliases, shell integrations, a nice diff viewer[1], etc., and interacting with Git has become muscle memory. I can commit, cherry-pick, rebase, bisect, fix conflicts, etc., in a fraction of the time it would take me to navigate Magit's UI. I'm sure with enough practice, a Magit user could do this more quickly and efficiently, but honestly, with some custom-built porcelain, Git's UI is not so bad. Though this could very well be Stockholm syndrome after using it for such a long time...
For whatever reason, Magit's opinionated workflows never clicked with me. A part of it is the concern that it will do something weird to my repo that I'll then have to waste more time undoing manually. I usually don't trust sugary wrappers around tools. And another is the fact I don't use Emacs on all machines, and setting up Git on a remote system is just a matter of copying over my config and some shell integrations.
Also, on a more personal note, I find the cultish fanboyism whenever Magit is brought up slightly offputting. Does anyone have anything bad to say about it? No software can realistically be this infallible. :)

How to use Git?
For looking at diffs I still prefer the command line though, and use delta to view diffs between commits or branches.
