About:
gitmux is a tool that fetches the current Git status of a repository and formats it for display in a tmux status bar. It provides highly customizable output, allowing users to show branch name, commit counts, and changes. This enables developers to monitor their repository state at a glance without leaving their terminal window.
Key Features:
  • Fast execution written in Go
  • Highly customizable output formatting
  • Supports ahead/behind commit counts
  • Shows working tree status indicators
Use Cases:
  • Monitoring active Git repository status in tmux
  • Automating status checks in shell scripts
  • Enhancing terminal workflow for developers
Alternatives:
  • tmux-powerline – Heavier, all-in-one tmux status line solution
  • bash-git-prompt – Focuses on shell prompts rather than tmux status bars
