  • Tig: Text-Mode Interface for Git
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 16 Dec 2024
    There're multiple solutions like this and I've used some of them over the past years.

    - There's obviously the fantastic Magit (https://github.com/magit/magit) which is an Emacs Plugin but you can configure your Emacs start up just with Magic and nothing else so that Emacs is only used as a TUI Git client. I did this for a while.

    - There's GitUI written in Rust (https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui) I did use this for a long time but recently switched over to LazyGit for the better Vim bindings and having more features

    - LazyGit (https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit) is what I'm using right now and I'm mostly happy

    I actually wrote my own in C some years ago called Gitsi (https://github.com/terhechte/gitsi).

    One thing that I added that (as far as I know) none of the others have and I sorely miss is VIM number based movements. So you can say 4j and jump 4 selections down. This makes it much faster (for me) to jump to the one file I'd like to commit. I ultimately stopped developing Gitsi because I didn't have the time to implement all the features others had readily available.

    I do prefer TUI based Git clients to full blown GUI apps because of the keyboard movement. So I can quickly enter do something and exit, while staying in the terminal

    For the TUI inclined, lazygit [1] and magit (emacs) [2] both have quick and intuitive ways of handling this. They're also both wonderful companions to the git cli for day to day version control.

    Lazygit (https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit)

    I know there are probably many GUI git tools and editor integrations which make using git fast and easy but I've been mostly using the CLI. Lazygit makes doing things like cherry picking really easy and once you learn the shortcuts it's pretty fast to use.

    Lazygit has its own built-in approach to this problem which is much more strict than what git-absorb does (it explicitly asks for confirmation if there's any ambiguity). There's an extensive writeup about it here: https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/blob/master/docs/de...
