Description
Simple, pragmatic TUI (Terminal UI) frontend for GIT. Written in Go with the gocui library.
From the official GIT repository:
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!
Installation Instructions
# dnf copr enable atim/lazygit
# dnf install lazygit
What to do if there is no build for your Fedora/RedHat based distribution?
From my experience often you successfully build RPM by doing these two steps
- Find the SRPM (source RPM file) by going to the list of RPMs in the build, and downloading the right one.
- Build it locally or on a remote server with the
rpmbuild
tool.
Example:
wget https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/dejan/lazygit/epel-9-x86_64/08827007-lazygit/lazygit-0.47.2-1.el9.src.rpm
rpmbuild --rebuild lazygit-0.47.2-1.el9.src.rpm
If you are on an older Fedora release, I suggest you follow this procedure. In the first step, get the latest SRPM file for the oldest available Fedora (currently 40). And build RPM with rpmbuild as described above.
If you believe I can enable specific distribution/version/architecture on COPR, make an issue here.
