A simple terminal UI for git commands, written in Go with the gocui library.
Are YOU tired of typing every git command directly into the terminal, but you're too stubborn to use Sourcetree because you'll never forgive Atlassian for making Jira? This is the app for you!
Installation
Homebrew
brew tap jesseduffield/lazygit
brew install lazygit
Ubuntu
Packages for Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 and 18.10 are available via Launchpad PPA.
Release builds
Built from git tags. Supposed to be more stable.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lazygit-team/release
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lazygit
Daily builds
Built from master branch once in 24 hours (or more sometimes).
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lazygit-team/daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lazygit
Go
go get github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit
Please note: If you get an error claiming that lazygit cannot be found or is not defined, you may need to add
~/go/bin
to your $PATH (MacOS/Linux), or %HOME%\go\bin
(Windows). Not to be mistaked for C:\Go\bin
(which is for Go's own binaries, not apps like Lazygit).Usage
Call
lazygit
in your terminal inside a git repository. If you want, you can also add an alias for this with echo "alias lg='lazygit'" >> ~/.zshrc
(or whichever rc file you're using).Cool features
- Adding files easily
- Resolving merge conflicts
- Easily check out recent branches
- Scroll through logs/diffs of branches/commits/stash
- Quick pushing/pulling
- Squash down and rename commits
