Open Source Go Git Software

You've heard it before, git is powerful, but what good is that power when everything is so damn hard to do? Interactive rebasing requires you to edit a goddamn TODO file in your editor? Are you kidding me? To stage part of a file you need to use a command-line program to step through each hunk and if a hunk can't be split down any further but contains code you don't want to stage, you have to edit an arcane patch file by hand? Are you KIDDING me?! Sometimes you get asked to stash your changes when switching branches only to realize that after you switch and unstash that there weren't even any conflicts and it would have been fine to just check out the branch directly? If you're a mere mortal like me and you're tired of hearing how powerful git is when in your daily life it's a powerful pain in your ass, lazygit might be for you.

bit is an experimental modernized git CLI built on top of git that provides happy defaults and other niceties. Command and flag suggestions to help you navigate the plethora of options git provides you. Autocompletion for files and branch names when using bit add or bit checkout. Automatic fetch and branch fast-forwarding reduce the likelihood of merge conflicts. Suggestions work with git aliases. New commands like bit sync vastly simplify your workflow. Commands from git-extras such as bit release & bit info. Fully compatible with git allowing you to fallback to git if need be. Get insight into how bit works using bit --debug.
