gitpane is a Rust-based terminal application that gives developers a workspace-level view of multiple Git repositories from a single interface.
Instead of checking each repository individually, it lets you monitor the overall state of your development workspace, inspect changes, browse commit history, and drill down into diffs and commit details directly from a text user interface.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Scans a configurable root directory to discover and display multiple Git repositories in one dashboard.
- Uses real-time filesystem watching to refresh repository status when files change.
- Shows a commit graph with recent history for the selected repository.
- Provides split diff views for changed files and commit-level drill-down for deeper inspection.
- Supports mouse interaction, context menus, and keyboard shortcuts for navigation and actions.
- Includes Git operations such as push, pull, and rebase from within the interface.
- Lets you add and remove repositories, rescan directories, and sort repositories by different criteria.
- Offers configuration options for root directories, scan depth, pinned repositories, exclusions, and frame rate.
- Runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
