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.
Table of contents
Lazygit is not my fulltime job but it is a hefty part time job so if you want to support the project please consider sponsoring me
Installation
Most of the above packages are maintained by third parties so be sure to vet them yourself and confirm that the maintainer is a trustworthy looking person who attends local sports games and gives back to their communities with barbeque fundraisers etc
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.
- Stable:
sudo pacman -S lazygit
- Development: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lazygit-git/
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
Gentoo Linux
Lazygit is not (yet) in main Gentoo portage, however an ebuild is available in cova overlay
You can either add the overlay to your system and install lazygit as usual:
sudo eselect repository enable cova
sudo emaint sync -r cova
sudo emerge dev-vcs/lazygit
Or you can download the ebuild and install it manually; please consider the example below just as a suggestion to be adapted to your system.
su
LAZYGIT_VERSION="0.39.3" # Replace with the version you want from cova-overlay
cd /usr/overlay/dev-vcs/ # Replace your overlay path
mkdir lazygit
cd lazygit
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cova-fe/cova-overlay/main/dev-vcs/lazygit/lazygit-${LAZYGIT_VERSION}.ebuild
ebuild lazygit-${LAZYGIT_VERSION}.ebuild manifest
emerge 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
.

in one terminal tab and lazygit --logs
in another to view the program and its log output side by side

FAQ
What do the commit colors represent?
- Green: the commit is included in the master branch
- Yellow: the commit is not included in the master branch
- Red: the commit has not been pushed to the upstream branch
