lazygit

brew install lazygit v0.62.2 MIT

Terminal UI for git commands with interactive staging, rebasing, and repository navigation in Go.

Why you might care

Lazygit replaces repetitive git CLI commands with a fast, keyboard-driven TUI that makes complex workflows (interactive rebase, stash management, branch switching) discoverable and efficient. It's a single binary with no dependencies, letting you stage hunks, view diffs, and navigate history without leaving the terminal—ideal if you find yourself repeatedly typing git status, add, and commit.
