Serie – A rich Git commit graph in your terminal

Serie is a TUI application that uses the terminal emulators' image display protocol to render commit graphs like git log --graph --all. This is not a full-featured git client, nor are there any plans to add such functionality, so it is not a replacement for tig, lazygit, gitui, etc. The only purpose of this tool is to provide a pretty git log --graph and make commit information easily accessible. While some users prefer to use Git via CLI, they often rely on a GUI or feature-rich TUI to view commit logs. Others may find git log --graph sufficient. Personally, I found the output from git log…

In plain words

Serie is a terminal application that displays Git commit graphs with visual formatting using image protocols supported by certain terminal emulators. It shows commit information in a readable format similar to git log --graph --all, designed for developers who want an easier-to-read alternative to standard command-line output without needing a full-featured Git client. The tool works only with specific terminals that support iTerm or kitty image protocols, not terminal multiplexers or Windows.

A rich git commit graph in your terminal, like magic 📚 - lusingander/serie

Serie ( /zéːriə/ ) is a TUI application that uses the terminal emulators' image display protocol to render commit graphs like git log --graph --all . While some users prefer to use Git via CLI, they often rely on a GUI or feature-rich TUI to view commit logs. Others may find git log --graph sufficient. Personally, I found the output from git log --graph difficult to read, even with additional options. Learning complex tools just to view logs seemed cumbersome.

    I've always wanted a better way to explore the authorship data embedded in a Git commit log. I'm having fun building a CLI tool to do this. It's a bit like the "Contributors" tab on Github that shows you how many commits each contributor has made but much faster and with many more options. If you get a chance to try it out, please let me know. I'd love to hear feedback and suggestions. Thank you!

    Hi everyone, I built a CLI tool called *diny* that generates Git commit messages directly from your staged changes. - It runs `git diff` and filters out noise like lockfiles, build artifacts, and binaries. - From the cleaned diff it suggests a clear commit message. - You can confirm or refine the message before committing. Key points: - No setup or API keys required. - Lightweight, local-first workflow. - Supports different lengths and styles (short, normal, long; conventional or simple). - Built in Go with Cobra for a familiar CLI experience.

  • I made a git rebase TUI editor2024 · github.com · ▲115

    I use interactive rebase quite often, and particularly like the editor bundled with IntelliJ. But I do not always work with IntelliJ, and am not 'fluent' with Vim, so I tried to replicate roughly the same rebase experience within a TUI. I used a small TUI OCaml project i made last year. The notable features are: - Move commits up and down, fixup, drop - Rename commits from the editor (without having to stop for a reword during the rebase run) - Visualize modified files along commits - 'Explode' a commit ,creating a commit for each modified file (a thing I found myself doing quite often)…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
