ggc is a Git tool written in Go, offering both traditional CLI commands and an interactive interface with incremental search.
You can either run subcommands like ggc add directly, or launch the interactive mode by simply typing ggc. It’s designed to be fast, user-friendly, and extensible.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Traditional command-line interface (CLI): Run ggc [args] to execute specific operations directly.
- Interactive interface: Run ggc with no arguments to launch an incremental search UI for command selection.
- Workflow functionality: Build and execute multi-command workflows in interactive mode (e.g., add → commit → push).
- Simple commands for common Git operations (add, push, pull, branch, log, etc.).
- Composite commands that combine multiple Git operations.
- Interactive UI for branch/file selection and message input.
- Customizable keybindings with profile support (default, emacs, vi, readline).
- Command aliases for chaining multiple operations.
- Unified, flagless command syntax for intuitive usage.
- Shell completion for Bash, Zsh, and Fish.
- Configurable via YAML configuration file.
- Built with Go standard library and minimal dependencies.
