## motivation
2020-03-19 19:59:31 +03:00
I do most of my git usage in a terminal but I frequently found myself using git UIs for some use cases like: index/commit, diff, stash and log.
Over the last 2 years my go-to GUI tool for this was [fork ](https://git-fork.com ) because it was not bloated, snappy and free. Unfortunately the *free* part will [change soon ](https://github.com/ForkIssues/TrackerWin/issues/571 ) and so I decided to build a fast & simple terminal tool myself to copy the fork features i am using the most.

## installation
2020-03-20 12:37:35 +03:00
For the time being this product is considered alpha and not production ready, therefore I do not distribute binary versions yet, however feel free to build `gitui` and let me know what you think!
### requirements
install `rust` /`cargo`: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install
2020-03-24 23:34:11 +03:00
### cargo install
2020-03-24 23:57:25 +03:00
the simplest way to start playing around with `gitui` is to have `cargo` build/install it:
2020-03-20 04:12:19 +03:00
```
2020-03-24 23:57:25 +03:00
cargo install gitui
2020-03-20 04:12:19 +03:00
```
2020-03-24 23:57:25 +03:00
### diagnostics:
2020-03-20 04:12:19 +03:00
2020-03-24 23:57:25 +03:00
to enable logging to `~/.gitui/gitui.log` :
2020-03-20 04:12:19 +03:00
```
2020-03-24 23:57:25 +03:00
GITUI_LOGGING=true gitui
