About:
GitDelta is a syntax-highlighting pager designed to improve the readability of git and diff output. It transforms standard diffs into visually appealing, structured formats with line numbers and side-by-side comparisons. This makes code reviews faster and more intuitive by highlighting changes in context.
Key Features:
  • Side-by-side and unified diff views
  • Advanced syntax highlighting for numerous languages
  • Git blame, log, and ref-diff support
  • Highly configurable styling and themes
Use Cases:
  • Improving readability of git diff output in the terminal
  • Streamlining the code review process
  • Enhancing git log and blame visualizations
Alternatives:
  • diff-so-fancy – Lighter-weight tool focused on making git diff output human-readable, but lacks the extensive syntax highlighting and configuration of Delta.
  • lvim – A full-fledged editor/IDE, whereas Delta is a specialized pager focused solely on displaying diffs and git output.
