I've been using lazygit. It is fast, has many git features (squash, reorder commits, hunk stage).

I recall I tried gitui before, and IIRC, back then hjkl as navigation keys are not supported. Now that you've shown me how to do that, I might try again. Thanks!

If I remember right the author was using lazygit before creating gitui. Based on his comparison in the readme they are kinda in the same ballpark, but gitui is more performant and stable.

I will say that gitui feels quite early in development. Its very active and adding new features. I haven't used other git TUIs much more than exploring them, but I would think gitui has less features at this point.

I wouldn't think that speed would matter quite like it does, but I find myself more apt to use it as it opens and closes instantly for my repos.
