21 .Nd Git repository browser
29 is an interactive read-only browser for Git repositories.
30 This repository format is described in
31 .Xr git-repository 5 .
34 supports several types of views which display repository data:
37 Displays commits in the repository's history.
38 This view is displayed initially if no
42 Displays changes made in a particular commit.
44 Displays the line-by-line history of a file.
46 Displays the tree corresponding to a particular commit.
50 provides global and command-specific key bindings and options.
51 The global key bindings are:
57 Quit the view which is in focus.
59 Switch focus between views.
61 Toggle fullscreen mode for a split-screen view.
63 will automatically use split-screen views if the size of the terminal
64 window is sufficiently large.
67 Global options must precede the command name, and are as follows:
68 .Bl -tag -width tenletters
70 Display usage information.
72 Display program version and exit immediately.
79 .It Cm log Oo Fl b Oc Oo Fl c Ar commit Oc Oo Fl r Ar repository-path Oc Op Ar path
80 Display history of a repository.
83 is specified, show only commits which modified this path.
85 This command is also executed if no explicit command is specified.

114 The search pattern is an extended regular expression which is matched
115 against a commit's author name, committer name, log message, and
