gvc (git-visual-compare) is a new visual git diff tool that I'm releasing today! Try it out at: https://dafoster.net/projects/gvc/ #coding #programming #diff #git
I've been using the diff mode of the venerable yet unmaintained GitX tool for a decade. But now I need my diffs to support dark mode, to avoid waking the baby at night. Astonishingly, existing GUI diff tools only support diffing *individual* commits, not ranges . So I finally bit the bullet and wrote my own. Enjoy!

@davidfstr@mastodon.world So existing GUI diff tools can't show the cumulative effect of multiple commits, which might explain why some developers miss unintended changes in code reviews.
