Elevator Pitch

Rant time: 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 realise that after you switch and unstash that there weren't even any conflicts and it would have been fine to just checkout the branch directly? YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!

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.

Features

Stage individual lines

Press space on the selected line to stage it, or press v to start selecting a range of lines. You can also press a to select the entirety of the current hunk.

Interactive Rebase

Press i to start an interactive rebase. Then squash (s), fixup (f), drop (d), edit (e), move up (ctrl+i) or move down (ctrl+j) any of TODO commits, before continuing the rebase by bringing up the rebase options menu with m and then selecting continue.

You can also perform any these actions as a once-off (e.g. pressing s on a commit to squash it) without explicitly starting a rebase.

This demo also uses shift+down to select a range of commits to move and fixup.

Cherry-pick

Press shift+c on a commit to copy it and press shift+v to paste (cherry-pick) it.

Bisect

Press b in the commits view to mark a commit as good/bad in order to begin a git bisect.

Nuke the working tree

For when you really want to just get rid of anything that shows up when you run git status (and yes that includes dirty submodules) kidpix style, press shift+d to bring up the reset options menu and then select the 'nuke' option.

Amend an old commit

Pressing shift+a on any commit will amend that commit with the currently staged changes (running an interactive rebase in the background).
