⚙ Options

You can change the default aliases by defining these variables below. (To disable all aliases, Set the FORGIT_NO_ALIASES flag.)

forgit_log=glo
forgit_diff=gd
forgit_add=ga
forgit_reset_head=grh
forgit_ignore=gi
forgit_restore=gcf
forgit_clean=gclean
forgit_stash_show=gss

You can add default fzf options for forgit, including keybinds, layout, etc. (No need to repeat the options already defined in FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS)

FORGIT_FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS="
--exact
--border
--cycle
--reverse
--height '80%'
"

Customizing fzf options for each command individually is also supported:

Command	Option
ga	FORGIT_ADD_FZF_OPTS
glo	FORGIT_LOG_FZF_OPTS
gi	FORGIT_IGNORE_FZF_OPTS
gd	FORGIT_DIFF_FZF_OPTS
grh	FORGIT_RESET_HEAD_FZF_OPTS
gcf	FORGIT_CHECKOUT_FZF_OPTS
gss	FORGIT_STASH_FZF_OPTS
gclean	FORGIT_CLEAN_FZF_OPTS

Complete loading order of fzf options is:

1. FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS (fzf global)
2. FORGIT_FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS (forgit global)
3. FORGIT_CMD_FZF_OPTS (command specific)

Example

• ctrl-d to drop the selected stash but do not quit fzf (gss specific).

FORGIT_STASH_FZF_OPTS='
--bind="ctrl-d:reload(git stash drop $(cut -d: -f1 <<<{}) 1>/dev/null && git stash list)"
'

• ctrl-e to view the logs in a vim buffer (glo specific).

FORGIT_LOG_FZF_OPTS='
--bind="ctrl-e:execute(echo {} |grep -Eo [a-f0-9]+ |head -1 |xargs git show |vim -)"
'

📦 Optional dependencies

• diff-so-fancy or delta: Improve the git diff output.

• bat: Syntax highlighting for gitignore.

• emoji-cli: Emoji support for git log.

💡 Tips

• Hit q to quit from full screen preview any time.
• Commands like glo, gd, gcf and gclean accept arguments to restrain the items listed in fzf(eg, glo develop, glo f738479..188a849b -- main.go, gclean output/ etc.).
• gd supports specifying revision(eg, gd HEAD~, gd v1.0 README.md).
• Call gi with arguments to get the wanted .gitignore contents directly(eg, gi cmake c++).
