About:
Diffnav is a Git diff pager that enhances the viewing experience by presenting changes alongside an interactive file tree. It leverages the visual style of delta while adding navigational context, allowing users to quickly understand which files have been modified. This structure helps developers focus on the most relevant changes without losing sight of the overall commit structure.

Key Features:

Interactive file tree navigation
Integration with git-delta styling
Side-by-side diff view
Keyboard-driven interface

Use Cases:

Reviewing large commits with many changed files
Navigating complex refactoring changes
Quickly identifying modified files in a feature branch

Alternatives:

delta – Delta provides syntax highlighting and line diffs but lacks the integrated file tree navigation of Diffnav.
lazygit – Lazygit is a full TUI for Git operations, whereas Diffnav focuses specifically on visualizing diffs.
