I have also been enjoying using lazygit (thanks, Lisandro, for the tip!). It's a similar sort of thing but runs in the terminal. I find it very useful for those things where the command line git tool falls down (staging parts of files, browsing large sets of changes), and I like that I don't have to bother with X windows to use something like gitk on my remote machine.
https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit The only wrinkles I ran into using this are that is seems to assume you have a somewhat-recent "git" executable for some of the fancier features (like merging or rearranging commits without using git rebase -i). > Am 03.03.2021 um 21:02 schrieb Jacob Faibussowitsch <[email protected]>: > >> 'gitk' is easier to read [for me] than 'git log --graph' > > Where was this my entire life… best kept git secret! > > Best regards, > > Jacob Faibussowitsch > (Jacob Fai - booss - oh - vitch) > Cell: (312) 694-3391 > >> On Mar 3, 2021, at 13:55, Satish Balay <[email protected] >> <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: >> >> 'gitk' is easier to read [for me] than 'git log --graph' >> >> Satish >> >> On Wed, 3 Mar 2021, Jacob Faibussowitsch wrote: >> >>>> git: 'graph' is not a git command.
