29 is an interactive read-only browser for git repositories.
30 This repository format is described in
31 .Xr git-repository 5 .
34 supports several types of views which display repository data:
37 Displays commits in the repository's history.
38 This view is displayed initially if no
42 Displays changes made in a particular commit.
44 Displays the line-by-line history of a file.
46 Displays the tree corresponding to a particular commit.
50 provides global and command-specific key bindings and options.
51 The global key bindings are:
57 Quit the view which is in focus.
59 Switch focus between views.
61 Toggle fullscreen mode for a split-screen view.
63 will automatically use split-screen views if the size of the terminal
64 window is sufficiently large.
67 Global options must precede the command name, and are as follows:
68 .Bl -tag -width tenletters
70 Display usage information.
