GRV is heavily based on tig, and takes a lot of inspiration from it. tig is still far more feature rich than GRV and will be for a while. However there are a couple of features GRV currently has that are nice:
- A simple query language that can be used to filter commits. For example: authordate >= "2017-09-01" AND authordate < "2017-10-01" AND authorname = "John Smith" AND parentcount < 2.
- View layout is more flexible. Each tab in GRV can have any view added to it as a vplit or hsplit. Users can create their own tabs and populate them with any combination of views they want. The long term idea is that when GRV supports more views (tree view, file view, etc) it will be possible to create quite a custom experience.
- cies 9y agoThis info deserves to be in the README, additionally as a way to pay respects to tig.
- acmecorps 9y agoFor some reason, I like the fonts more on grv compared to tig, even though tig has more features. Any chance that I can do basic stage/unstage/commit etc with grv?
- laumars 9y ago> For some reason, I like the fonts more on grv compared to tig, I can't tell if this is a joke comment or not but both tools are run in the terminal so the font would be whatever the terminal uses. What you're doing is essentially comparing the typeface of `sed` verses `awk`

- jordigh 9y ago> A simple query language Oh, nice, finally someone implemented something like Mercurial revsets for git: https://www.mercurial-scm.org/repo/hg/help/revsets https://www.mercurial-scm.org/repo/hg/help/revsets I've been hoping that even if nobody ever uses Mercurial, I was hoping at least they would manage to implement some of its better ideas for git.
