    Not trying to be pessimistic here, but I feel like the author is being a bit loaded with the marketing text. There&#x27;s many pieces of TUI software that do this exact same thing with &quot;color and clarity&quot; and the same fuzzy search, etc.<p>This repository here has a pretty exhaustive list of these softwares: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;indigane&#x2F;git-graph-drawing" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;indigane&#x2F;git-graph-drawing</a><p>Anyway, congratulations to the author for actually releasing their work.

      Often when people write something like this, they haven&#x27;t really looked for alternatives. It reminds me a bit of the rifle creed: &quot;There are many like it, but this one is mine.&quot;

    Serves a bit of a different purpose - but for working with git in the terminal I&#x27;m a big LazyGit fan - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;jesseduffield&#x2F;lazygit" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;jesseduffield&#x2F;lazygit</a><p>I use it in neovim with <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;kdheepak&#x2F;lazygit.nvim" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;kdheepak&#x2F;lazygit.nvim</a>

      I use LazyGit as well, but the graph icons always piss me off so much. I&#x27;ve gotten used to it, but I&#x27;d love to change the icons.

        Jeez <i>ads</i> on a gitlab readme, and no screenshots to see the annoying icons.

      Seconded, lazygit helps so much with understanding my index

    &gt; Unicode commit graph with per-branch colors<p>I think every popular Git client can do this, no?<p>I&#x27;m waiting for a Git client which can colour commits by category&#x2F;areas&#x2F;files. It would be helpful to see which areas of the codebase have the most commits. Especially useful if using conventional commits (eg. fix: correct usage of foo) alongside it.<p>Areas or files with a lot of commits tend to be sources of bugs or indicate other things.<p>You can write a script to find this sort of thing, but that requires you to remember to do it. If it was built in passively to a Git client, I think a lot more would be revealed.

    Thanks for sharing. That would be a nice additional example in .NET with Andy TUI. The library is not Rust but there are a few examples you might be interested in, including a HN client [2] [3].<p>References:<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rivoli-ai&#x2F;andy-tui2" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rivoli-ai&#x2F;andy-tui2</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rivoli-ai&#x2F;andy-tui2&#x2F;blob&#x2F;main&#x2F;examples&#x2F;Andy.Tui.Examples&#x2F;Demos&#x2F;HackerNewsDemo.cs" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rivoli-ai&#x2F;andy-tui2&#x2F;blob&#x2F;main&#x2F;examples&#x2F;An...</a><p>[3] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;CgECRa2" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;CgECRa2</a>
