An advanced git search extension for Telescope and fzf-lua.

Search your git history by commit message, content and author in Neovim

Demo

  :AdvancedGitSearch or :AdvancedGitSearch {command}

  Your usual search experience. See the individual commands for the grep behaviour.

• ✏️ Further search on commit author with @

  The prompt is split on @. Everything following the @ is the pattern for the author name.

Opens a window with a list of all previous commit.

Grep behaviour: filter on added, updated or removed code (log content: -G option in git).

• <CR> Opens a diff of the current file with the selected commit
• <C-e> show the entire commit for all files in neovim with diff plugin
• <C-o> Open the selected commit in the browser
• <C-y> copy the commit hash to clipboard
• <C-p> copy the commit patch for a single commit or a range to clipboard (currently telescope-only)
• <C-w> cycle author, date and both in entry

Opens a window with a list of git commits that changed the current file (renames included).

Opens a window with a list of local branches

Grep behaviour: filter on branch name.

• <CR> opens a diff for the current file with the selected branch

Opens a window with a list of changed files on the current branch (including staged files). The fork point of the current branch is determined with the following command:

git show-branch | \
 sed "s/].*//" | \
 grep "*" | \
 grep -v "$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)" | \
 head -n1 | \
 sed "s/^.*\\[//"

Note: this only works if there is already a commit on the current branch, otherwise the base branch can not be detected.

Grep behaviour: filter on filename.

• <CR> opens the selected file.

Opens a window with all reflog entries

• <CR> checkout the reflog entry

A telescope picker for all functions above. Enable show_builtin_git_pickers to additionally show builtin git pickers.
