Lazygit is a simple terminal user interface for git commands. Git is the version-control system most developers use to track changes in their code, and its built-in commands are typed at a plain text prompt. Lazygit puts that same workflow inside an interactive screen that runs in your terminal: panels for branches, files, commits, and stashes that you can move around and act on with keys, instead of remembering long git invocations. A short demo in the README shows a commit-and-push flow happening with a few keystrokes. The author, Jesse Duffield, also runs a paid SaaS-tracking product called Subble, and the readme calls out a few sponsors at the top including Warp (a terminal application) and Tuple (a screen-sharing app), as well as a list of GitHub Sponsors who fund maintenance. The project itself is open source. You would reach for Lazygit if you use git often and want a faster, more visual way to drive everyday actions without leaving the terminal or installing a full graphical app. It is distributed through the GitHub releases page and through package managers, with a Homebrew formula highlighted in the readme badges, and the project tracks download counts on its tagged releases. The project is written in Go, and source quality is tracked through public reports from Go Report Card, Codacy code grade, Codacy coverage, and golangci-lint, all of which the readme links to as status badges. Maintenance is described in the readme as coming from contributors and sponsors together, and the file links to a GitHub Sponsors page for anyone who wants to fund development and get their avatar shown in the supporter list.
