I do most of my git work in a terminal but I frequently found myself using git GUIs for some use-cases like: index, commit, diff, stash, blame and log.
Unfortunately popular git GUIs all fail on giant repositories or become unresponsive and unusable.
GitUI provides you with the user experience and comfort of a git GUI but right in your terminal while being portable, fast, free and opensource.

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 snappy, free, and not bloated. Unfortunately the _free_ part will [change soon](https://github.com/ForkIssues/TrackerWin/issues/571) and so I decided to build a fast and simple terminal tool to help with features I use the most.
