Core Git Developers Configure Git

1. delta

   1 100 25,900 8.6 Rust

   A syntax-highlighting pager for git, diff, grep, and blame output

   

   You can also do that with delta (https://github.com/dandavison/delta), with additional options that you can put on your .gitconfig

2. CodeRabbit

3. difftastic

   2 77 22,040 9.6 Rust

   a structural diff that understands syntax 🟥🟩

   

   I prefer difftastic (https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic) as diff tool.

   I think it's the most readable and understandable diff.

4. gitbutler

   3 14 15,010 10.0 Rust

   The GitButler version control client, backed by Git, powered by Tauri/Rust/Svelte

   

5. dotfiles

   4 5 54 9.4 Perl

   A work in progress. Forever. (by Julian)

   

   Mine is here [1], I basically had all of these set already (other than column ui which I don't like), but I suspect that's just because I've probably previously read nice posts by Scott and others talking about them.

   Maybe trading alias tips is another useful thing to do though, hence sharing the link.

6. magit-delta

   5 11 304 0.0 Emacs Lisp

   Use delta (https://github.com/dandavison/delta) when viewing diffs in Magit

   

   If you’re an emacser, you can even use delta with magit via the same author’s magit-delta package: https://github.com/dandavison/magit-delta

   Looks like there are also instructions in the docs for using it with vscode

7. bat

   6 207 52,228 9.3 Rust

   A cat(1) clone with wings.

   

8. dotfiles

   7 1 6 5.6 Shell

   

   Happy to notice I already use most of these. The only ones I didn't know are diff.mnemonicPrefix, diff.renames and commit.verbose.

   My config if you'd like to steal it, also here: https://github.com/silvanocerza/dotfiles/blob/master/git/git...

   Mind that you need diff-so-fancy for this work correctly.

9. InfluxDB

   influxdata.com featured

   InfluxDB high-performance time series database. Collect, organize, and act on massive volumes of high-resolution data to power real-time intelligent systems.

   

10. diff-so-fancy

    8 23 17,560 5.0 Perl

    Good-lookin' diffs. Actually… nah… The best-lookin' diffs. :tada:
