Lazygit[0] is ideal for quickly selecting files or lines you want to include in your commit. There are probably countless others. And `--patch` is also not that hard. [0] https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit

I'm a big fan of https://github.com/MitMaro/git-interactive-rebase-tool on the terminal. I also use git absorb (https://github.com/tummychow/git-absorb) and lazygit a lot (https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit).

Navi is good for generating personal cheatsheets: https://github.com/denisidoro/navi But for Git, I can't recommend lazygit enough. It's an incredible piece of software: https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit

Eg: lazygit https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit?tab=readme-ov-file#... https://github.com/sxyazi/yazi https://github.com/darrenburns/posting or I guess Vim would be a prominent example. Peoples definitions will be on a gradient, but its somewhere between CLI (type into a terminal to use) and GUI (use your mouse in a windowing system), TUI runs in your terminal like a CLI but probably supports "graphical widgets" like buttons, bars, hotkeys, panes, etc.

https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit Full featured, also written in go, if that sort of thing matters to you

Serves a bit of a different purpose - but for working with git in the terminal I'm a big LazyGit fan - https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit I use it in neovim with https://github.com/kdheepak/lazygit.nvim

I've been using lazygit [https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit] which is a friendly TUI that makes selecting which lines to commit relatively painless. As a heavy user of hunk-by-hunk or line-by-line commits, I used to use tortoisehg, but on my current distro its showing some bitrot, so I decided to try something else.

force with lease has been used in lazgit already AFAIK, see: https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/discussions/4068#di...

(author of the blog post here) Fully agree! 1. Yes, it's been a frustration initially, but it has a nice benefit - it forces you to use native features (e.g. patch based copy/reset). Apparently it's on the radar, but not implemented yet: https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/issues/4365#issueco... 2. Yes, see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45898167 discussion. Using IDE is great if all your machines has this IDE installed (and GUI in general). The stability (graphical layout) is likely changing often though.

Off-topic: but the README of lazygit is awful with all those sponsors at the top. I hope Github comes up with a better way to list sponsors that favors developers and allows them to exclude them from the README. https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit

Maybe I missed it but I couldn't find where to install it from and autocomplete doesn't resolve to a debian package either... https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit?tab=readme-ov-file#... So with a newer non-LTS ubuntu you can just apt install lazygit, with 24.04 it's ``` LAZYGIT_VERSION=$(curl -s "https://api.github.com/repos/jesseduffield/lazygit/releases/..." | \grep -Po '"tag_name": "v\K[^"]') curl -Lo lazygit.tar.gz "https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/releases/download/v..." tar xf lazygit.tar.gz lazygit sudo install lazygit -D -t /usr/local/bin/ ```

Lazygit is amazing: https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit I have no connection to this program, other than that I love it, and shill for it every time I get the chance.

I'm not a github power user but check out Lazygit (https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit)!
