Gitui is a terminal-based git user interface (TUI) that will change the way that you work with git. I have been a long-time user of the git cli, an...

I do most things from cli and only use ui's as a last resort, but I have been interested in looking into this for a little while, maybe it's time to check it out...
On another sort of off-topic note; I love wget and all, but I don't understand why lots of these GitHub projects don't have installers. I know most of us devs like to do things manually, but it's nothing anymore to build a quick installer for any files at GitHub, especially with JSDELIVR, which seems pretty dependable and if an installer is open source and does what it says then I prefer to use it. I built a nice reusable method in Rust recently to do so and so I've already built installers for a few other people's projects to use myself lol and one project that is released officially.
And on another sort of off-topic note: have you heard of
axelas an alternative to wget? It's not necessarily a replacement as there are a couple of things it can't do that wget can, but for normal case uses axel is like a hot rod that goes from 0-60 in a few seconds and especially great for large files.Definitely give this one a try. It is so ridiculously quick and easy to keyboard navigate. Makes for a good tool to have in your toolbelt.
I'm with ya on all of these amazing new rust cli tools that are wicked fast all being deployed to github releases. I am surprised that there is not an installer tool for that use case.
I have not used axel, I may need to check that out.
I use the built in git from VSCode 99% of the time. I’m more productive using that but that's just me.
I used to use Git Fork GUI but all the development I do nowadays is in VSCode so it’s convenient for me not having to leave my editor. As far as the terminal I just find typing the commands out every time to be tedious.
vscode has a really great integrated git interface. The diff interface is very intuitive and beautiful. Not sure if it was my setup with wsl1, or having too many simultaneous projects open, but I found it took a lot of resources for me and was not easily keyboard navigatable.
Big thanks for the sharing.
I stay on the CLI because it's the simplest things hard to beat to me
git add -pis one of my best friends ^_^I installed vim-fugitive but never invest time into it (remembering this I will probably soon now 😂)
Still this TUI that you shared seems nice.
Being already a user of tig for browsing the history of a repo, I will probably give a shot to this
gituiThanks again :-)
I dont think I have ever used
git add -p, but I do usegituito stage hunks, you can select them from the diff panel.I am with you on fugitive. I see others use it so fluidly and think I need that, but it never actually clicks with me.
If I finally discover that it’s an awesome tools, maybe I will write an article to share 😄
I've been using lazygit. It is fast, has many git features (squash, reorder commits, hunk stage).
I recall I tried gitui before, and IIRC, back then
hjklas navigation keys are not supported. Now that you've shown me how to do that, I might try again. Thanks!If I remember right the author was using lazygit before creating gitui. Based on his comparison in the readme they are kinda in the same ballpark, but gitui is more performant and stable.
I will say that gitui feels quite early in development. Its very active and adding new features. I haven't used other git TUIs much more than exploring them, but I would think gitui has less features at this point.
I wouldn't think that speed would matter quite like it does, but I find myself more apt to use it as it opens and closes instantly for my repos.
Nice. I typically start up git gui& running along in the main repo, but there are a lot of times I'm working in multiple repos, or ssh'd into another machine. I'll give this a go. I think I'll like it. Thanks for the info!
This is actually pretty cool! It reminds me of vim-fugitive(By the great Tpope). Thanks for the share!
I use from CLI command, but also from Vscode and Pycharm with own plugins to go with and sometimes from gitkraken UI application (who is very nice).
I have a friend raving about gitkraken, I should check it out.
Tower is the only thing I’ve found that got me off the command line
