-Type `git recent` to see your latest local git branches
+Speedily browse your latest local git branches, `checkout` with Enter. Also view  branches unique commits, and optionally the diff against main.
 
-## Usage
+[Demo video of git recent 2.0](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/441f0b9b-8469-41bd-a826-0bb0cd7c7de8)
+
+`git recent` now offers an interactive UI (thx to [fzf](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf)) for browsing recent branches, seeing differences, and `checkout`'ing your selection.
+
+See a diff of your branch vs main with `ctrl-o`. If you have [delta](https://dandavison.github.io/delta//) it'll use that for formatting, but will fallback, too.
+
+If you're like me, mostly using classic git commands, then `git recent` provides a nice upgrade for browsing/selecting recent branches. But if you're a TUI fan using [git-fuzzy](https://github.com/bigH/git-fuzzy), [`lazygit`](https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit) or [`tig`](https://jonas.github.io/tig/) or [`fzf-git`](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf-git.sh), well… this probably isn't an upgrade. :p  (But you can certainly [read the source](/git-recent) quickly!)
+
+
+### Installation
+
+`fzf` is required for 2.0. TBH, it's a fantastic tool; those [shell key bindings](https://junegunn.github.io/fzf/shell-integration/) are _delightful_. That said, if you're dependency-averse, the older version below, [`git recent-og`](#git-recent-og), may be for you.
+
+* Mac: `brew install fzf`
+* Linux: `sudo apt-get install fzf`
+* Windows: `choco install fzf`
+
+Then, do one of these:
+
+* Manual: Grab the `git-recent` script from this repo and put it anywhere in your `$PATH`. Run `chmod +x git-recent`.
+* Via NPM: `npm install --global git-recent`
+* ~Homebrew: `brew install git-recent`~ _(Coming soon! Updated for 2.0)_
+
+### Usage
 
     git recent
 
+Hit `Enter` to checkout the selected branch.
+
+Type or use arrow keys to navigate your list of branches.
+
+Hit `ctrl-o` to see the branch diff.
+
+--------------------------------
+
+# `git recent-og`
+
+`git recent-og` is the [OG](https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=OG) `git recent`, released back in 2016. Now it's been renamed to `git recent-og`.
+
+    git recent-og
 
 Optionally, add `-n<int>` to see the most recent `<n>` branches
