A terminal pager that renders git diffs as GitHub-style side-by-side (split) diffs with syntax highlighting powered by Shiki. It is configured as git's core.pager and offers themes, line wrapping, and inline change highlighting.
Use cases
- view side-by-side diffs in the terminal
- syntax highlight git diff output
- make git diff look like GitHub
- customize diff themes and line wrapping
- fall back to unified diffs on narrow terminals
When to choose
- you review diffs in the terminal and want a GitHub-like split view
- you want syntax highlighting in git diff output
- you want a drop-in git pager with sensible defaults
When to avoid
- you need a graphical diff tool or IDE integration
- you cannot install Node.js 14+
- you only need unified diffs
