|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
# features
|
|
|
|
* fast and intuitive key only control
|
|
* context based help (**no** need to remember any hot-key)
|
|
* inspect/commit changes (incl. hooks: *commit-msg*/*post-commit*)
|
|
* (un)stage files/hunks, revert/reset files/hunk
|
|
* scalable ui layout
|
|
* async [input polling](assets/perf_compare.jpg) and
|
|
* async git API for fluid control
|
|
|
|
# known limitations
|
|
|
|
* hooks don't work on windows (see [#14](https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui/issues/14))
|
|
* [core.hooksPath](https://git-scm.com/docs/githooks) config not supported
|
|
* revert/reset hunk in working dir (see [#11](https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui/issues/11))

# 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](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
|
|
|
|
For the time being this product is considered alpha and **not** production ready.
|
|
|
|
## homebrew
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
brew install extrawurst/tap/gitui
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## install from source
|
|
|
|
### requirements
|
|
|
|
install `rust`/`cargo`: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install
|
|
|
|
### 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 to `~/.gitui/gitui.log`:
|
|
```
|
|
GITUI_LOGGING=true gitui
|
|
```
