GitUI is amazing. The only caveat to many developers is that GitUI is still unusable when you GPG sign your commits, even after so many years and with functioning PRs already created. This excludes, in my opinion, a large portion of the possible users from using GitUI. However, it might still be useful for everything Git-related which does not require creating/changing commits.

For a super long time, I was a CLI-purist when it came to git, and I still maintain that anyone who knows how to use git should be able to do anything via the CLI entirely.

However, over the past few months I have used gitui through vim-floaterm, with it setup to auto-launch as the floating terminal opens. Super useful to just hit a hotkey while in nvim and bash out a super quick commit/push with just a couple keystrokes.

Was surprised to see the repo was 60 MB but looks like it is because of the screen cast gif

I prefer using the command line.. but it is nice to be able to use a TUI to select the staging files, so this works out perfectly.
