known limitations

motivation

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 because it was not bloated, snappy and free. Unfortunately the free part will change soon and so I decided to build a fast & simple terminal tool myself to copy the fork features i am using the most.

installation

For the time being this product is considered alpha and not production ready.

release binaries

see releases

homebrew (macos)

brew install extrawurst/tap/gitui

install from source

requirements

install rust/cargo: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install min rust version: 1.42

cargo install

the simplest way to start playing around with gitui is to have cargo build/install it:

cargo install gitui

diagnostics

to enable logging:

GITUI_LOGGING=true gitui

this will log to:

  • $HOME/Library/Caches/gitui/gitui.log (mac)
  • $XDG_CACHE_HOME/gitui/gitui.log (linux using XDG)
  • $HOME/.cache/gitui/gitui.log (linux)

color theme

In general gitui should automatically work on dark and light terminal themes. However you can customize everything to your liking: see THEMES.md
