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.

In the maker’s words, at launch
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 --graph difficult to read, even with additional options. Learning complex tools just to view logs seemed cumbersome. Limitations: - Sixel is not supported. Only terminals that support the iTerm and kitty image protocols are supported. - Terminal multiplexers are not supported. - Windows is not supported. https://github.com/lusingander/serie
