A terminal-based GUI client for Git

Project description

# Giterm

A terminal-based GUI client for Git.

# Features

Giterm shows information about the current status of your Git working copy. It shows in a single view:

  • local branches, and which branch you’re currently on

  • remote branches, and which branch the current local branch is tracking

  • commit history, and which commit you are currently working from

  • current changes

  • a diff view of the selected file in the changes list

Giterm only shows Git information. It does not support git actions like commit checkout, branch switching, staging or committing. But it could be in a future realease if you want!

> Well OK, you should now be able to stage/unstage files with the spacebar :)

# Installation

pip install giterm

If you don’t have pip installed yet:

curl -s https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | sudo python pip install giterm

# Requirements

Giterm needs the git executable to be installed and available in the PATH of your system. Others dependencies should be automatically handled by pip.

# Technical background

Giterm uses subprocesses to call Git shell-based commands, and parses their outputs to bring the relevant information to the user interface.
