The best git for terminal so far. Thank you

[harshitjoshi]

I only use basic git commands, but still this has improved my workflow tremendously.
thanks for writing such great software and thanks for blessing us with your work !

Holy shit dude... This is amazing. Also, your pace of work and control shows that you were in fact the sole developer behind this ;D

[ShinnyxAKAvincent]

This looks super powerful! My god, I have to learn this.. I usually do most of my stuff in iterm, then I patch up with sourcetree for rebasing & having something more "visual" to look at. Lazygit seems to be the perfect mix of terminal+the visual aspect of sourcetree. Looks quite overwhelming at first tbh, but seeing you move around so fast & naturally makes me want to learn it at all cost lol

Finally a video you don't need to play in 1.5x speed 😅 Some actions still happened a bit fast and I had to rewind or in the end never fully understand what keys you pressed. But amazing how much you can do in lazygit in 12min! I'm sold on it

Just ran into a instance where I accidentally was working on a staging branch. Attempted to switch branches and low and behold, rather than give a stupid error... Lazygit says "Hey you need to stash and pop your changes to bring them over, want me to do that for you?"

OMGYESiloveyou. So many clients just punt and make you do the dance manually.

Thank you for rescuing me from Friday-evening brain.

This is really awesome! Thanks for your hard work!

I know this is an old video, but this video convinced me to try lazygit, and I've been loving it. Previously I prefered to use the git commands directly as I found git apps would get more in the way than anything

[vpetevotov]

Wow, I haven't seen such an agile and powerful tool for git management! Big thanks!

[korniychuk]

This guide is super extremely short/compressed and at the same time unbelievable informative/useful! I've stopped and rewound many times. This video is an example haw programming lessons should looks like. Nice job! Thank you so much for the utility and for so nice tutorial.

[robertovalle]

You're like a feature dragon, hoarding all the features to yourself!!

[jimmyji]

You created this ? What an honor to meet you😊

[certciv]

I first saw this video several years ago. It convinced me to try lazygit, and I've never looked back. Thank you for the fantastic tool Jesse.

[tiesmaster]

What an amazing tool this is!!! It took a bit of time to wrap my head around, but it's really redefining how I'm using git, and doing things (not) on the command-line. Fantastic!!!

[douglascamata]

Freaking awesome, dude! I've been using lazygit for a while and after watching this I feel like I'm at a whole new level. Just gotta practice all the cool things you taught us. Thanks!🙇‍♂

[JessPatton]

Lazygit has changed the way I think about and interact with git. Thanks so much for making this amazing piece of software.

[skytale]

I don't know what to say but, great tool. Very helpful. Thanks for the work you put into it. 5 years ago or not it helps me today.

[Sven-yi]

Just found lazygit and it reignited my interest in learning more of git than add, commit, push and pull. Thanks! ❤‍🔥
