# gittwig

A terminal user interface (TUI) for viewing and switching git branches, built with Python and [Textual](https://textual.textualize.io/).

I built this because I wanted a quick way to view git branches and switch between them. Vibe-coded with Claude Code.

This provides a fast, easy way to browse branches, see the commit history for a given branch, identify files changed in a branch, and view file diffs with syntax highlighting. As an open source developer who works with many branches across multiple projects, this is very helpful for figuring out where I left off and juggling multiple branches.

- View changed files compared to your default branch
- View commit history unique to each branch
- Syntax-highlighted diff viewer
- Checkout branches with Enter
- Create and delete branches
- Fetch, push, and pull operations
- Filter branches with `/` search
- Vim-style keyboard navigation
