SYNOPSIS
lazygit [git-arg] [-h | --help] [-v | --version] [-p | --path path] [-f | --filter path] [-d | --debug]
[-l | --logs] [---profile] [-c | ---config] [-cd | ---print-config-dir]

[-ucf | ---use-config-file files] [-sm | ---screen-mode mode]
DESCRIPTION
lazygit is a simple terminal UI for git commands that makes git easier to use.
It provides an interactive interface to perform common git operations such as:
• Viewing and staging files
• Committing changes
• Browsing logs and diffs
• Managing branches and remotes
• Handling stashes
All features of lazygit can be easily accessed using arrow keys and intuitive keystrokes.
OPTIONS
Positional Arguments
git-arg Panel to focus upon opening lazygit. Accepted values (based on git terminology): status, branch,
log, stash. Ignored if --filter argument is passed.
Flags
-h, ---help Displays help with available flags, subcommands, and positional value
parameters.
-v, ---version Print the current version of lazygit.
-p, ---path path Path of the git repository. Equivalent to ---work-tree=path and ---git-dir=path
/.git.
-f, ---filter path Path to filter on in git log -- <path>. When in filter mode, the commits,
reflog, and stash are filtered based on the given path, and some operations are
restricted.
-d, ---debug Run in debug mode with logging. Use the LOG_LEVEL environment variable to set
the log level (debug, info, warn, error).
-l, ---logs Tail lazygit logs. Intended for use when lazygit --debug is running in another
terminal tab.
---profile Start the profiler and serve it on HTTP port 6060. See
/usr/share/doc/lazygit/CONTRIBUTING.md.gz for more details.
-c, ---config Print the default config.
-cd, ---print-config-dir
Print the path to the configuration directory.
-ucd, ---use-config-dir dir
Override the default configuration directory with the provided directory.
-w, ---work-tree path Set the Git ---work-tree argument.
-g, ---git-dir path Set the Git ---git-dir argument.
-ucf, ---use-config-file file1,file2,...
Use a comma-separated list of custom config file(s).
-sm, ---screen-mode mode
Set the initial screen mode, which determines the size of the focused panel.
Valid values are: normal, half, full.
