Git status

Git tab screenshot

The bottom panel’s Git tab surfaces the git state of the pane’s cwd.

Section titled “Header”

The top rows summarise the pane’s branch state.

  • Branch — current branch name
  • Ahead / behind — ↑N / ↓N counts vs. the configured upstream
  • PR number — #123 when GitHub CLI (gh) resolves a pull request for the branch; the overlay is a clickable hyperlink in terminals that support OSC 8
  • Diff shortstat — combined added / deleted line counts and changed file total

File sections

Section titled “File sections”

Changed paths are grouped into three sections, each prefixed with a single-character status and followed by a right-aligned +added/-deleted numstat (omitted for untracked entries).

  • Staged — content already added to the index
  • Unstaged — tracked files with working-tree changes
  • Untracked — files the index has never seen

Status letters:

  • A — added
  • M — modified
  • D — deleted
  • ? — untracked

Each section lists up to 10 entries and collapses the rest into a +N more row.

Git data is refreshed from a background polling thread, so interaction with the sidebar stays snappy even in repositories with slow git operations.
