If you are using Neovim, Neogit is a similar plugin. It’s my preferred way of using git.

What Hacker News says
12 sourcesThis looks very much like the Noevim plugin I began using about a month ago: neogit[0].
The keybindings were a bit rough, and it took me about an hour of use before I was really comfortable with the overall workflow. Once I was, though, I’ve found it to be much faster than my previous workflow (suspending neovim and using git directly in the shell).

In What's new in Emacs 29.1For neovim users, there's a work-in-progress clone, neogit: https://github.com/timUntersberger/neogit/
Some of my colleagues use emacs/magit, and after seeing how absolutely lovely the workflow is, I've put in a lot of work over the last few months expanding it. You can check out my fork here: https://github.com/ckolkey/neogit/
One thing I particularly like to tease my emacs' colleagues about is that my magit is faster than theirs thanks to neovim's async capabilities.
In Magithttps://github.com/TimUntersberger/neogit Is a port of magit to neovim. Still some stuff missing (rebase/reset iirc) but mostly does the job
In Please help improve Magitfor those who have used both Magit and neogit, how's the neogit experience as a Magit clone?

In Please help improve Magithttps://github.com/TimUntersberger/neogit & DiffView if I want everything inside neovim.
If I am just living in the terminal, I like to use a mix of https://github.com/extrawurst/gitui (doesn't support signed commits yet!) and https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic which provides amazing semantic diffs.

It’s not feature complete but I’ve been using it for a few days and have been happy with it, as an ex-magit user
In Neovim 0.5 is overpowering
