Text-mode interface for git

@vivien

then this when doing Ctrl+L

Hi Vivien!
I'll take a look.

tke

@tke

is it possible to use tig without pagination? I'd love to have a replacement for git log --oneline --graph that renders the graph the same as tig does

Jonas Fonseca

@jonas

I played with supporting something like that at one point, but never managed to complete it.

Hi, I have a small problem. The "unstaged changes" are not shown. I tried different versions of tig and in 2.0.3 they're shown and they're missing after 2.1. I have no .tigrc, so I'm working with default settings. Am I doing something wrong?

Igor Almeida

@igoralmeida

@hutchison even if you press s while in the main view ?

Martin Darmüntzel

@hutchison

Then I'm getting a different view and it's not the same as git diff.

What I mean is the "unstaged changes" at the top of the main view.

It's unfortunate because I liked that :smile:

Jonas Fonseca

@jonas

@hutchison Are you seeing this with the latest Tig master? What Git version are you using?

Jonas Fonseca

@jonas

There was a few changes to that part of the code between 2.0.3 and 2.1, but nothing springs out.

Martin Darmüntzel

@hutchison

Ok, I think it's not tig's fault – it has something to do with the name of the current branch.

It seems to me that if the name of the branch contains an umlaut (like ä, ü, ö) then the unstaged changes are not shown.

So it seems that if I avoid umlauts then everything will be fine.

Jonas Fonseca

@jonas

Interesting, I'll look into adding some tests for that

Rel-api

@Rel-api

Hi, is there a way to clear a search?

Jonas Fonseca

@jonas

No, unfortunately the "edit" and "search" modes are not that advanced.

Tim Vaughan

@tgvaughan

@jonas Just want to say a big "thank you" for putting together such an awesome tool. tig has been my go-to tool for visualizing the current state of the commit graph for many years now, to the point where I feel distinctly handicapped on any system where it's not installed. It's much better at this job than git log --graph and even magit on emacs. So thank you!

Jonas Fonseca

@jonas

Thank you @tgvaughan for the kind words.

André Martingo

@AFGM

can anyone help me with the meaning of M and O

I didn't understood

Jonas Fonseca

@jonas

M=merge commit, O=illustrates a "circle" (normal commit).

André Martingo

@AFGM

and the lines that come from one commit and another, how should I read the graph?

by columns or lines?

Jonas Fonseca

@jonas

It works similar to git log --graph so should be read similarly.

Commits are sorted useing git-log's --topo-order parameter

Show no parents before all of its children are shown, and avoid showing commits on multiple lines of history intermixed.

Igor Almeida

@igoralmeida

@AFGM if you[r terminal] can, I recommend using set line-graphics = utf-8

André Martingo

@AFGM

@Jonas thanks jonas

Kevin Roulleau

@Kignuf

Hello, I'm trying to setup ~/.tigrc file so that the date always displays as abbreviated, but it doesn't work, here is the error:
tig warning: ~/.tigrc:1: Unknown option name: date-display

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong ? Thanks

in my ~/.tigrc file I've got:
set date-display = relative-compact

Kevin Roulleau

@Kignuf

I got it working, the actual variable name is not the one displayed in tig when toogling the option. See "View settings" section in the documentation https://jonas.github.io/tig/doc/tigrc.5.html

In the end my file looks like this:
set main-view-date = relative-compact
set main-view-author = abbreviated
set main-view-commit-title-overflow = 50
set line-graphics = utf-8

Jonas Fonseca

@jonas

:+1: ... indeed the name listed is not "fully qualified" unfortunately.

Joar Wandborg

@joar

@jonas Using tig 2.2: I have a .gitattributes file with

*.crypt.* filter=git-crypt diff=git-crypt
.gitattributes !filter !diff

.git/config contains

[filter "git-crypt"]
    smudge = \"git-crypt\" smudge
    clean = \"git-crypt\" clean
    required = true
[diff "git-crypt"]
    textconv = \"git-crypt\" diff

git diff uses the filter and/or diff from .gitattributes, but tig does not use it when viewing an unstaged diff, is this a bug or a missing feature?

I noticed that git show does not use the filters either

Jonas Fonseca

@jonas

@joar Tig is quite old-school when it comes to the status and stage views. It uses git diff-index, which probably doesn't honor .gitattributes.

Maik Klein

@MaikKlein

Can tig switch branches with autocompletion?
