Installation

Here's an example spec for Lazy, but you're free to use whichever plugin manager suits you.

{
  "NeogitOrg/neogit",
  dependencies = {
    "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim",         -- required
    "sindrets/diffview.nvim",        -- optional - Diff integration

    -- Only one of these is needed.
    "nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim", -- optional
    "ibhagwan/fzf-lua",              -- optional
    "echasnovski/mini.pick",         -- optional
  },
  config = true
}

If you're not using lazy, you'll need to require and setup the plugin like so:

-- init.lua
local neogit = require('neogit')
neogit.setup {}

Compatibility

The master branch will always be compatible with the latest stable release of Neovim, and usually with the latest nightly build as well.

Configuration

You can configure neogit by running the neogit.setup() function, passing a table as the argument.

local neogit = require("neogit")

neogit.setup {
  -- Hides the hints at the top of the status buffer
  disable_hint = false,
  -- Disables changing the buffer highlights based on where the cursor is.
  disable_context_highlighting = false,
  -- Disables signs for sections/items/hunks
  disable_signs = false,
  -- Changes what mode the Commit Editor starts in. `true` will leave nvim in normal mode, `false` will change nvim to
  -- insert mode, and `"auto"` will change nvim to insert mode IF the commit message is empty, otherwise leaving it in
  -- normal mode.
  disable_insert_on_commit = "auto",

Usage

You can either open Neogit by using the Neogit command:

:Neogit             " Open the status buffer in a new tab
:Neogit cwd=<cwd>   " Use a different repository path
:Neogit cwd=%:p:h   " Uses the repository of the current file
:Neogit kind=<kind> " Open specified popup directly
:Neogit commit      " Open commit popup

Or using the lua api:

local neogit = require('neogit')

-- open using defaults
neogit.open()

-- open a specific popup
neogit.open({ "commit" })

-- open as a split
neogit.open({ kind = "split" })

-- open with different project
neogit.open({ cwd = "~" })

The kind option can be one of the following values:

• tab (default)
• replace
• split
• split_above
• split_above_all
• split_below
• split_below_all
• vsplit
• floating
• auto (vsplit if window would have 80 cols, otherwise split)

Popups

The following popup menus are available from all buffers:

• Bisect
• Branch + Branch Config
• Cherry Pick
• Commit
• Diff
• Fetch
• Ignore
• Log
• Merge
• Pull
• Push
• Rebase
• Remote + Remote Config
• Reset
• Revert
• Stash
• Tag
• Worktree

Many popups will use whatever is currently under the cursor or selected as input for an action. For example, to cherry-pick a range of commits from the log view, a linewise visual selection can be made, and using either apply or pick from the cherry-pick menu will use the selection.

This works for just about everything that has an object-ID in git, and if you find one that you think should work but doesn't, open an issue :)

Highlight Groups

See the built-in documentation for a comprehensive list of highlight groups. If your theme doesn't style a particular group, we'll try our best to do a nice job.

Events

Neogit emits the following events:

Versioning

Neogit follows semantic versioning.
