Jesse Duffield a57310df24 Retain commit message when cycling history
When cycling history, we want to make it so that upon returning to the original prompt, you get your text back.
Importantly, we don't want to use the existing preservedMessage field for that because that's only for preserving
a NEW commit message, and we don't want the history stuff of the commit reword flow to overwrite that.

Elevator Pitch

Rant time: You've heard it before, git is powerful, but what good is that power when everything is so damn hard to do? Interactive rebasing requires you to edit a goddamn TODO file in your editor? Are you kidding me? To stage part of a file you need to use a command line program to step through each hunk and if a hunk can't be split down any further but contains code you don't want to stage, you have to edit an arcane patch file by hand? Are you KIDDING me?! Sometimes you get asked to stash your changes when switching branches only to realise that after you switch and unstash that there weren't even any conflicts and it would have been fine to just checkout the branch directly? YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!

If you're a mere mortal like me and you're tired of hearing how powerful git is when in your daily life it's a powerful pain in your ass, lazygit might be for you.

Installation

Binary Releases

For Windows, Mac OS(10.12+) or Linux, you can download a binary release here.

Homebrew

Normally the lazygit formula can be found in the Homebrew core but we suggest you tap our formula to get the frequently updated one. It works with Linux, too.

Tap:

brew install jesseduffield/lazygit/lazygit

Core:

brew install lazygit

MacPorts

Latest version built from github releases. Tap:

sudo port install lazygit

Void Linux

Packages for Void Linux are available in the distro repo

They follow upstream latest releases

sudo xbps-install -S lazygit

Scoop (Windows)

You can install lazygit using scoop. It's in the extras bucket:

# Add the extras bucket
scoop bucket add extras

# Install lazygit
scoop install lazygit

Arch Linux

Packages for Arch Linux are available via pacman and AUR (Arch User Repository).

There are two packages. The stable one which is built with the latest release and the git version which builds from the most recent commit.

Instruction of how to install AUR content can be found here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository

Fedora and RHEL

Packages for Fedora/RHEL and CentOS Stream are available via Copr (Cool Other Package Repo).

sudo dnf copr enable atim/lazygit -y
sudo dnf install lazygit

Solus Linux

sudo eopkg install lazygit

Ubuntu

LAZYGIT_VERSION=$(curl -s "https://api.github.com/repos/jesseduffield/lazygit/releases/latest" | grep -Po '"tag_name": "v\K[^"]*')
curl -Lo lazygit.tar.gz "https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit/releases/latest/download/lazygit_${LAZYGIT_VERSION}_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz"
tar xf lazygit.tar.gz lazygit
sudo install lazygit /usr/local/bin

Verify the correct installation of lazygit:

lazygit --version

Funtoo Linux

Funtoo Linux has an autogenerated lazygit package in dev-kit:

sudo emerge dev-vcs/lazygit

FreeBSD

pkg install lazygit

Conda

Released versions are available for different platforms, see https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/lazygit

conda install -c conda-forge lazygit

Go

go install github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit@latest

Please note: If you get an error claiming that lazygit cannot be found or is not defined, you may need to add ~/go/bin to your $PATH (MacOS/Linux), or %HOME%\go\bin (Windows). Not to be mistaken for C:\Go\bin (which is for Go's own binaries, not apps like lazygit).

Chocolatey (Windows)

You can install lazygit using Chocolatey:

choco install lazygit

Manual

You'll need to install Go

git clone https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit.git
cd lazygit
go install

You can also use go run main.go to compile and run in one go (pun definitely intended)

Usage

Call lazygit in your terminal inside a git repository.

$ lazygit

If you want, you can also add an alias for this with echo "alias lg='lazygit'" >> ~/.zshrc (or whichever rc file you're using).

Keybindings

You can check out the list of keybindings here.

Changing Directory On Exit

If you change repos in lazygit and want your shell to change directory into that repo on exiting lazygit, add this to your ~/.zshrc (or other rc file):

lg()
{
    export LAZYGIT_NEW_DIR_FILE=~/.lazygit/newdir

    lazygit "$@"

    if [ -f $LAZYGIT_NEW_DIR_FILE ]; then
            cd "$(cat $LAZYGIT_NEW_DIR_FILE)"
            rm -f $LAZYGIT_NEW_DIR_FILE > /dev/null
    fi
}

Then source ~/.zshrc and from now on when you call lg and exit you'll switch directories to whatever you were in inside lazygit. To override this behaviour you can exit using shift+Q rather than just q.
