The (lazy) Git UI You Didn't Know You Need

Lazygit is a terminal-based Git UI that enhances productivity through consistency, discoverability, and interactivity. The tool maintains Git CLI terminology while providing visual guidance for operations like interactive rebasing, cherry-picking, and commit patching. Its vim-style keybindings enable quick workflows (e.g., amending and force-pushing in 5 keystrokes), while interactive prompts prevent mistakes and teach better Git patterns. The TUI approach delivers speed and portability without overwhelming users, making complex operations like splitting commits or selective line resets significantly simpler than traditional CLI or GUI alternatives.
