diffnav is a terminal-based git diff pager built in Go, based on delta but adding a GitHub-style file tree for navigating changes. It provides a TUI experience for reviewing diffs across files.

Use cases

  • view git diffs with a file tree
  • replace delta as my diff pager
  • navigate large diffs like on GitHub
  • review code changes in the terminal
  • browse changed files in a TUI

When to choose

  • you review large diffs and want file-tree navigation
  • you like delta's syntax highlighting but want GitHub-style browsing
  • you live in the terminal and want a modern TUI diff viewer

When to avoid

  • you need a GUI diff tool
  • you want a plain pager without TUI dependencies
  • you don't use git
